NEED ADVICE ON THE TWO WEEKS LIQUID...........

I would love to hear how everyone handle the two liquid diet leading up to the surgery? All advice is welcome.

My doc has me doing a plan that includes shakes, lean meats, veggies and fruits.  I've had trouble choking down the chocolate EAS shakes, but I LOVED the Atkins advantage strawberry ones....but realized later that they have too much fat (9g).

I plan on handling it with SHEER DETERMINATION!  I know it is in my best interest to shrink my liver and make things easy and safe for my surgeon. It will be hard but we can get through it!!  Hang in there girl!

I didn't have to do the liquid diet prior to surgery.  And I am five years out now so I don't really know what all kinds of different shakes are out there.   I do still drink a shake for breakfast every morning.  But I just do the high protein extra creamy chocolate slim fast.  It only has 5 grams of fat in it.  Good luck!  Hang in there!  It will be worth it.
