May 3rders- only 16 days!!
I'm a May 3rder as well, and I am so nervous. I am also doing the liquid pre surgery diet. My only issue is mixing the powders, too little and it grainy, too much and it is too frothy...uugghh..lol.
I plan on going out this weekend, I figured if I did it all too soon time would drag on. So this weekend is all my prep shopping and helping my husband get the house ready for me to be gone a few days.

Good Luck to all of you having surgery before me. I have been drinking a Protein shake a day for a month already they wanted to build me up before surgery.

Yesterday I started my protein diet before surgery. Did really well and was never hungry.
My NUT wants all protein or almost all protein for two weeks prior so it shrinks the Liver and they have a better view of the Stomach. I am having my Stomach Removed not stappled do to a disease of the stomach. So I won't have to worry about a G tube since I won't have a stomach.
I bought Centrum Liquid vitamins, Have 5 pound bag of Vanilla and a 5 pound bag of Chocolate protein powder in addition to the 2 2 lb cans I ahave been using.
Good luck all
