wanabthin 0 Posted August 1, 2007 I'm being banded Friday, my 2 week post op diet according to my surgeon is "anything you can get thru a straw" First I thought, okay, but now I'm thinking what the heck is that? I would like to get prepared so I'm all set after surgery. Can anyone give me some ideas? Of coarse there is Soups, Protein Drinks, and broth, but what else should I stock up on? Thanks!

Guest ZenGarden Posted August 1, 2007 Hi there, Here is my list of things I stocked up on prior to surgery: Sugar-free/fat free pre-made pudding cups Non-fat dry milk (to add to the pudding/milk for extra protein) LOTS of Organic skim milk (smile) Sugar-free applesauce Canned Tomato and chicken noodle Soup EAS/AdvantEDGE Carb Control shakes - these are YUMMY and have the lowest calorie/highest Protein of any pre-made shake Carnation Instant Breakfast ready-to-drink shakes Crystal light drink mix Tropicana sugar free lemonade and orange drink in 2-liter bottles Nestle Quick Sugar Free chocolate mix for milk I wish you the best of luck to you! You will do GREAT! -Shannon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
