I really can't believe your doctor would even give you the option of Slim Fast or insure- they ARE NOT COMPLETE meal replacements. If you are not eating other things this can actually depleate your vitamins going into the surgery. I urge you to go for optifast its 160 cals a drink so you can have more than three to keep you full-I had to drink 5 a day. Also please take a multi vitamin too. Also I was burning 2000 cals a week working out so gave me the option of throwing in another 2 shakes if needed cause I was working off the calories. GOOD LUCK!!
