So, there is such a product as Sugar Free CIB?

It's not sugar free, but it's noadded sugar, which is acceptable by my doctor.

Thanks Dave.  I had gone to Wal-Mart for CIB and wasn't sure... I guess they don't carry it. I'll pick it up at Shaw's or S&S. Thanks again and Best of Luck!!

Good luck Dave.  I feel your pain.  I love to eat, (hence the reason for the RNY).  I can't stand to drink a meal.  And the puree after surgery is going to KILL ME!!!!!!  Can you have a snack of like carrots or veggies in between the shakes.  i need to chew to survive.  Keep us posted. Jen

The diet i'm on is very strict.  3 shakes a day and a small meal of lean protien and some veggies. They did tell me I can have lean cusine for the food meal, but make it low carb.  And all the water you want (at least 64oz). Not sure what your doctor will have you do, but this is the one from Dr Giovanni and Dr Phol's office.

Woo-hooo, Dave!  ALL the water you want!  The fund just never stops, does it? My Dr. just wants fasting & a clean-out the night before.  Another woo-hoo!  It depends on your Dr., your surgeon, & your surgery, I think.   It's just for a short-time, though.  I do believe that cussing is also allowed.  I don't envy being in your position.  Old habits are hard to break.

Good luck!

Thanks, It's getting a little better.  Basically I'm almost half way there.  One work week and weekend left.  The monday before surgery shouldn't be too bad, I'll probably be too nerved up by that point to eat.
