Wake Up!!!
Hi everyone wake up MS Board. What are you eating today. I hope all post -ops are still getting that protein in, exercise, and Vitamines. If not then let this be your day to get back on track, don't wait until Monday. I have a question to post-ops.
**Do carnation instant breakfast come in sugar-free? I throught that is what was on my sheet from my doctor, but I could be wrong. Don't want to and go to the if I don't have to.
**Also does anyone know if GNC is the only place that will take back your product (protein) if you don't like it?
Just a couple of questions to get you started this morning.
Take Care
T-13 days, I have done my pre-op work and if everything is okay I'll be laying it down the 21 of April.
Okay, I am awake. Carnation instant breakfast does come in sugar free but when I had my surgery over a year ago you could never find it. But they say it is easier to find now. GNC is the only place I know of that will take stuff back.
Now for the food question: What am I eating today?
So far:
Breakfast Bacon/Cheese Omlet 170 cal 13 grams protein
Snack Banana 105 cal 0 prot.
Later for Lunch 1/2 Southbeach Diet Lunchable 125 cal 12.5 g protein
Afternoon snack will be 1/2 Southbeach Diet Lunchable 125 cal 12.5 pro
Don't know yet what is for Dinner because we sometimes go out to dinner on Friday nights.
Your surgery date is getting closer and closer. I know you are getting excited. Good luck to you.

they used to have the sf carnation instant breakfast at walmart but i didnt really care for after they downed it on me at the hospital plus its not a whole lot of protein. i mostly drank the protein drinks the isopures from gnc seemed to do the best for me they taste like watered down koolaid not too bad and if u sign up for the card u get a discount then and the first 7 days of every month. i wouldnt buy a whole bunch of anything b/c your taste buds may change...mine did. i also like the carb countdown chocolate milk u get over my the milk at walmart its good if u like chocolate milk and it has 12g of protein in 8 oz which is less oz than a can of coke. just some suggestions hope it helps.im so happy for u.
ill have u in my prayers

Yes, its sugar free. Its not real tasty in my opionion but it wont make you sick. They will give it to you in the hospital.
I have never bought any protein shakes anywhere except from Wal-Mart. I like the EAS Coffee Shakes and the Designer Whey shakes. They are the only 2 I drink. I can find them both at Wal-mart on 98. Try them I think you will like them.
I dont do the whole powder mixes. I have some Carb Solution powder you can have. I only had 1 scoop out of it. Not to my liking...
I am glad your tests went well. I havent heard from Janet on mine.
Talk to you later!
