I had a convo with a someone who is post op by a couple years last week

They confused me a bit.  They drank protein drinks while on opti fast. They did have surgery in Toronto and dealt with HRRH.

I was just aware that I could have 2 cups of veggies, stock, sugar free jello, sugar free popsicles, water.

Am I able to have pre made protein shakes? like Premier Protein chocolate like this person did?

Nope just the Optifast and the other stuff that they told you was allowed.  Obviously this person didn't follow the plan as nobody on here has ever been allowed both.

 

ETA:  They may have done Premier instead of Optifast.  Some have done that when they have had an allergic reaction to the Optifast.

The best advice I was given by my dietician for the Opti stage, as well as when healing at home (those 6 weeks of transition) "if it's not on the list, don't eat it!" If it's not anywhere listed in your paperwork then stay away
