Drinks, Shakes, and more

[Chris Lee 43]

I just received my surgery date last week which is 18 April 2017. I will likely begin the "shake diet" in the next week or so. I have purchased a variety of shakes form our local health/organic store. I have not tried any other than the premier Protein choc. It was ok. I have also purchased premier caramel flavored and Adkins vanilla but haven't tried them yet . I am not a meat eater so I am Protein challenged from the get go my dietitian said. Laughing at the same time he said it! I purchased some crystal light like beverage powders and true lemon lemonade for the clear liquid day before surgery. I have had an intolerance to artificial sweeteners had was told years ago by my dr. to avoid them. Well i thought with the new plant based sweeteners I might do ok. Nope, still caused a very upset crapping tummy and loose stools. Water will remain my drink of choice. Any one know of any sweet free drinks?/?

Same thing here, artificial sweeteners kill me!

My favorite drink has become unsweetened iced tea. And it's great by itself but you can also add unflavored Protein Powder to it, which gives you some Protein.
