KrystalRose 24 Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) Hello everyone! So tomorrow is the big day for me! I’m having my gastric sleeve surgery. I’m definitely both excited and nervous. My surgeon wants me on a full liquid diet today. I thought that meant I could have broth but apparently I can’t! It’s just strictly Protein shakes! I’m so bummed because I was really looking forward to having some broth knowing that it’ll keep my stomach full tonight. I know I gotta prepare myself for the surgery but I was just curious so to why I can’t have broth? Did anyone else have to have strictly Protein Shakes?

Creekimp13 5,840 Posted January 29, 2018 I had to have strictly prescription shakes the last five days....they were vanilla anchovy flavor. Seriously! God, they were bad! The other nine days I had regular shakes and Clear Liquids that included broth. Best wishes on your surgery for a safe effective outcome:) 1 KrystalRose reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best wishes on your surgery for a safe effective outcome:) I’m drinking the Premier Protein vanilla shakes. They are good I didn’t have a problem with the taste. It’s just drinking them for Breakfast lunch and dinner make me want to vomit! It’s way too much for me lol but I have to follow doctors orders. Thank you so much!

Miss Topaz 300 Posted January 29, 2018 I have 3 Premier Protein shakes for 2 days. I agree, breakfast lunch and dinner gets old. But, prepare yourself - there's more Protein Shakes after surgery! You can do it! And after surgery, you can mix in broth - I'm having Bone Broth for dinner. Best of luck on your surgery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
