Anybody in Jersey?!

[Ywent79 7]

Hello everyone, I'm from central Jersey. I'm having my surgery Wednesday @ Robert Wood Johnson New Brunswick. I'm excited, nervous, anxious, you name it...lol I just want to get it over! I have been on my liquid diet, and working my booty off at the Gym, needless to say I can't wait for start of my new life!

Do you have the Protein drinks? My nutritionist recommended Atkins-lift Protein Drinks - it has 20g of Protein in 16oz, Soups (Campbell's cream of chix, or Tomato Soup or chix broth) I made cauliflower Soup and added plain protein in it. I googled to get ideas. Jello, pudding, Protein shakes

I actually called them first, but they only take out of network coverage and I have Horizon Omnia. Dr. Sadek is doing my surgery, he also has an office in Freehold which is where I would see him; however I'm having my surgery at RWJ since it's tier 1 which means my surgery is covered 100%, I'm just paying $250 copay for the one night that I'm staying inpatient.
