I am hoping to have my surgery on 12/19 and I would like your expert advice on what meal replacement shakes are best so I can begin preparing for my 2 week pre-op diet.

    My doctor's office has a store with all kinds of high protein shakes, snacks, meals, etc. and they gave us detail before and after surgery on how much of what to drink or eat. So I was set with protein infused beef and chicken broth and Syntrax Nectar protein shakes. I prefer savory to sweet, so I could really only do so many shakes. Having that broth really helped me. I still shop at the store, not as often, but I do keep a supply of the shakes and the broth for those times I need a little bit more protein in the day. I also keep a supply of the Syntrax unflavored protein powder to add to anything I make that just isn't high enough in protein.

    Hope that helps.
