Pre op liquid diet
I started the diet today, and its really not bad. I had carnation instant breakfast for breakfast, jello and a sugar free popsicle for lunch, and I have yet to eat dinner. I have been drinking alot of water/juices. I got these hawaiian punch juice packs, like 1 pack = 1 bottle of water. They have the same calories as crystal light, and they have 1 carb it says on the package. I have had a bunch of them today and I am starting to worry that the carbs might not be so much a good thing. Also, can anyone reccomend a good protein powder I can mix in with my water? preferably somthing fruit flavored :)
Congrats on starting your journey! I really like like the Iso Pure powders although they can be a bit pricey. My advice would be to go to GNC and try things out so you can take them back if you don't like them. Word to the wise though...your tastes will probably change after the surgery so protein that's yummy now might not sit well with you post-op. Case-in-point...don't buy those 100 lb tubs of protein powder just yet. Good Luck!
