3 day liquids,starts today!!!!! HELP!

Hi everyone, well today I sart the 3 day liquids only, with the surgery coming up fast, on Mondaythe 18th. I had a question for you all. If I just have protien drinks, I well get low suger for sure .I am diebetic,the only thing I can think of is to take glucose tablets . Do you have any other ideas for me? I'm to only drink clear liquids.Time is a ticking on. Jo Ann

Jo Ann!  It's good to see your bright and smiling face. Did you check with the doc about how to handle low blood sugar through this phase?  I hope you aren't too uncomfortable through the liquid thing.  Hang in there sweetie.  We're all pullin' for ya! Linda

Thank you all for the help ,and incouragement, I did call the dietican and she said it was ok to have orange juice, or any kind realy, and some kind of caffine free, pop. I guess when she told me not to have juice during the pre-weight loss ,I was just staying away from it . I have been taking my protein drink with skim milk ,and I am very satisfied ,so good so far . Its so nice to know your all there. My sons fiancee,will be my angle and keep you informed as how I'm doing . If not I'll be back as soon as I can and let you know how it all is going . Jo Ann

JoAnn,  you're almost there.  Will be anxious to hear how you are doing and praying for you.             Julia

Hi Joanne

Congrats! You're on your way. I'd chk with the Drs office. I'm sure they deal with this all the time

I know they told us that we can jello and popcicles, so maybe that will help keep your blood sugar from dropping. 

JoAnn, I'll be thinking of your Monday -- I'm just a couple of days behind you (6/20).   We'll be losers soon. Sorry, I can't help with the diabetic question, but do think it would be a good idea to check with the doc. Shirley

Well you are almost thru the 1st day and that was the worst for me. so hang in there baby. I lived on sugar free popcycles, . I know that dosent help much with the sugar levels but I would as the others did recomend you talk to Dr Patterson and get her Ideas.
