How long b4 surgery did U.......
Hi...I was on the LD for two weeks prior and 4 weeks after.
We used Boost High Protein before surgery and Boost Glucose Control after each three times a day.. We could also have broth and SF Jello and SF popscicles.
I didn't mind it at all...the Boost kept me full. The warm broth was nice in the evenings especially.

Today will be day 3 of 10 day pre-op liquid diet. I have protein drinks 5x/day, like Carnation Instant Breakfast, Slim Fast, Boost, Ensure, also Broth, Propel, Crystal Light, Fruit2O, Coffee, Tea, water.
I have found that the protein drinks really keep me from getting hungry. The Special K Fruit2O Strawberry Kiwi is pretty good, too. I have had a headache every day though.
I can do this!!

Thanks Guys- Not sure what I will be required to do yet so I was just wondering- Guess I have to be approved first- LOL-
But Jennifer and Sandy- Thomas Jones is one of the doctors I have to choose from at PNC- so could be a 10 day thing for me too if that is his usual.

All doctors in the PNC Methodist program require a 10 day liquid diet. 9 days of boost, carnation instant breakfas****er, etc. Then day 10 is clear liquids and the great flush out!!!
Good Luck in your pursuit!!!
