skim milk diet

Hi, I am new here (to this site). I'm in Vancouver, WA. I just got my surgery date today for July 13. My question is about the skim milk diet before surgery. I am supposed to start that right away. I am so scared. I haven't been able to stick to liquids for a day let alone two weeks. I would like to know how you guys got through it. Thanks!

I was on the skim milk diet for 3 weeks.  I perservered because I wanted the surgery so bad.  I cheated the first week, but my Dr. told me that she would give me one more chance and then decide if I was ready for the surgery.  I was a saint after that - a much tempted saint, but I wanted that surgery! There is no magic in staying on that skim milk diet.  I wish there were and I could share it with you.  You just have to remember that this is a step in the thinner and healthier direction.

I notice you have dr. Cagel who is in the office with my dr., dr. daly. I have done OK so far today with the milk, but I think if I need a protein drink or something, I might do that. Glad to know someone else made is thru! It seems like Vancouver doctors are the only ones that require this. I'm going to try my best.

Wow , this the first i've heard of a skim milk diet . I did a liquid diet for 10 days pre-op . I drank 3 shakes , broths , popsickles , & jello . Good luck . Kathy
