slimfast

I am doing my presurgery liquid diet. The only drink that I can stomach is the slimfast. It has alot of sugar but i am keeping to the 1200 calories per day the other protein drinks with very low sugar is so sweet it makes me sick even putting in blender with ice its still sweet. I hear alot of good things about the medifast I am going to order them online

Have you tryed Slimfast 2 less sugar like 2 grms of sugar percan  and 20 grms protein,,I drank aft my surgery for the protein and my dr was ok with that but you need to ask your dr if he/she are ok with you doing it.

Yea prolly okay before surgery but after surgery not supposed to have so much sugar and u need protien drink for 2 weeks after surgery so I would just find a protien drink even if its to sweet because its better for you:)

Slim Fast was one of the few things that I could keep down post surgery.  Good Luck with your surgery.

The thing is, if it has a lot of sugar, it must have a lot of carbs, right?  And the point of the pre op diet is to do a very low carb diet to shrink the liver.
