Hey everyone! I hope all is well with everybody! I have a question, one of the MANY things I tried for weight loss before choosing this surgery was going to the Metabolic Medical Center here in Columbia. I bought about 300.00 worth of protein shakes from them that I have not used. Now, they are good but, when I decided to have surgery I wanted to save them for after. So, do you think they might be okay? They have 15 grams of protein in them and MAYBE 5-7 grams of carbs. What does everyone think? Of course I intend to ask my doctor as well Thank you all for your input! Jodie

Hi Jodie My surgeon has his patients use Optifast for 4 weeks prior to surgery. It is a protein supplement. He told us that we would not be able to drink it after surgery because of the sugar in it. I would certainly ask your doctor or nutritionist. Melissa
