Pre-Surgery Weight Loss Shakes..... Diet
How many shakes a day did you drink to drop your pre surgery weight requirement? I need to lose about 7lbs ASAP and was wondering.
Someone on here suggested the EAS carb control drinks in chocolate fudge and I like them they taste like chocolate milk.
When I had the lap band it was 4 shakes and a lean dinner....
Personally I would rather just do the liquids and be ready for the REAL 2 weeks of liquids...
Just making sure that I have my math right...
TIA

the point to the pre-op diet is usually to be low carb so low carb shakes, sugar free pudding, and if you are allowed food then its usually supposed to be lean protein like chicken breast.
i was allowed soup too, though if you are required to lose weight the sodium and carbs in it are no good...though i lost 10lbs in a week on mine..

I was allowed 3-5 low calorie, low carb, high protein shakes per day. Plus all the no calorie clear liquids I wanted. Broth, crystal ligh****er, propel, sf popsicles, etc. I did this for 7 days preop and lost 10 pounds.
The shakes I used were store-bought pre-made ones. Powders were icky to me (although now I use nectar powders which I love). EAS Carb Control, a few Atkins, Muscle Milk Light are the ones I remember.
