Protien shake for liquid diet.



Recommended Posts

I did a lot of research on what I should be drinking for my 2 weeks pre op liquid diet. Last week I finally found something I really like. It's 20 grams of Protein per serving and also has no sugar as well as chromium to regulate my blood sugar (which regulates mood). Also (a little TMI) I am not getting "backed up" using this because it has digestive enzymes (which is a great thing :tongue2:)

Same company also does a super greens drink so that I am getting my fruits and veggies servings so I am not missing out on any Vitamins or minerals while I'm doing the pre op liquid diet.

My surgery is scheduled for 10/6/09. I know I can do it!

If any one is interested in what I am using send me a message and I'll send you some info on it.

Folks, be aware that almost all docs have a preference for what you use during the pre-op phase. And pre-op diets vary dramatically from one doc to the next. Some docs are all liquid. My doc was 2 shakes (made from a powder purchased in his office) and 2 lean meals per day. You'll want to follow your doc's specific diet because, as Restless Monkey will attest, if you don't do what you're told you could have a rude awakening on surgery day .... wake up to find your liver didn't shrink enough and the doc didn't put your band in at all.

So you probably sell these shakes, since you're not posting a link or any other info. Everyone else who finds a great shake doesn't hesitate to post everything in the message.

Actually my friend sells these and both her and I started using it and then I bought the product for my pre op diet and signed up to share and sell as well because I like the product so much. I didn't post the info because I didn't want it to be "spamy". I just wanted to share this great product I found and if others were interested great if not then they didn't have to ask for the info (and that's ok too). And no matter what product you buy, someones making money off it.

"And no matter what product you buy, someones making money off it."

That's true, but if the person recommending a product is also the person making money from the sell of the product, I want to know up front.

Fair enough....but if someone asks for the info then I just send them the website link and leave it at that.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
