 my surgery is scheduled for 5/26/10.  my doctor told me to go on a low/no carb diet.  Does anyone have a good diet that they followed prior to surgery.  I can not afford to gain a pound prior to it.  I work in the filed alot so i need something easy.  I bought the Nectar Crystal Sky Protein Drink.  Someone suggested two protein drinks and a lean cuisine.

Lean Cuisines are usually full of carbs.  I did Carnation Instant Breakfast No Sugar Added, No Sugar Added Yogurt, cottage cheese, lots of deli meats and cheeses (the ones sliced at the deli, not the prepackaged), grilled chicken, burgers with no buns, etc.  For the field you could use low carb tortilla wraps with deli meats and cheese for quick on the go lunches. 

Hope this helps!

 Thanks, it does.  I have a thyroid problem and am panicked that my weight might go up, so I am trying to start my pre-op diet now because it's harder with the thyroid issue.
