Pre-Op Diet

My doctor requires a two week pre-op diet for every one of his patients.  His diet is a combination of 5 shakes or bars during the day and a lean meat/low starchy vegetable for dinner.  Basically it's like slim fast or medifast.  It's not too hard  but it certainly isn't easy.  It would be a lot easier if I didn't have to make every meal and snack for 3 hungry boys!! Today is day 4 and I'm already down 5 pounds!! 

Protein drinks I love:
Syntrax Nectar - these have flavors that are like tropical drinks, lemonade, fuzzynavel, mmmm; it's a nice change from chocolate and vanilla shakes
Premier Chocolate Shakes - these are ready to drink and are nice to grab when heading out the door.  They taste good too!
