Protein shakes before op ??? Advice please !!!

2 weeks until my op.. big gym goer.. do I have to stop my WHEY protein shakes ?? Xx please help

I was still having whey in the run up to my op, I hadn’t really thought about stopping it! Have you read somewhere you should? x

Hey gemma.. it’s just with it saying stop vitamins and supplements etc… Does protein count. I’m reading different things on different websites . May have to ring in the morning xx be gutted if I have to stop

Im the same, I do train a lot plus im vegetarian, so I do take them few times a day, I asked the nurse about it last week and she said they are absolutely fine. You want to make sure you get enought proteins because that will help you with the healing process. I hope this helps x

Hey Anna,
Thanks for the advice babe! good luck with your op 🙂 xxx

Thank you! I hooe everything goes well for you! When is your op? xxx

2 weeks – 13th Feb at Preston! so nervous but so excited, just read that they take your blood on the day of surgery too .. another worry i hate having bloods, whats this for !? lol xx whens yours xx

How exciting! Mine is on the 12th at Preston! Im guessing the blood test is just to see if everything is ok on the day, I think no matter what operation you are getting done, its something they always do! So dont worry! It will be all worth it! xx

omg you’ll have to let me know how you get on.
You have same surgeon as me as well. how exciting

Love MYA Mod xx

I think it is just vitamin E supplements they are concerned about as they thin your blood – I was drinking protein shakes before my op and wasn’t told to stop xxx

thanks hun xx

I had protien shakes up till the week before just to be safe, but I also read the ingredients as some have vitamins in Inc vit e, mine didn’t but I wasn’t taking any chances
