Many surgeons require a pre op diet because it shrinks the liver making. Isualization with a laperscope easier -

Oh, and unless there is a reason you shouldn't, consider a flu shot (personal preference, but advised) -

NDN_RN replied to xlr8ahead's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I would suggest for pre op folks, daily Vitamin C and purell in your pocket. Avoid sick infectious people, crowded gatherings. But above all wash or purell your hands as much as possible! -

NDN_RN replied to IsaacsGram's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I bought some cream Soups from WonderSlim for my full liquid stage, i liked them dureing a previous diet. Even if I dont like them post op, i'll save them for later down the road. -
Funny how different the diets are from surgeon to surgeon. i am to be on clear liquids for 7 days, with only 20 g of Protein intake per day required (1/2 bottle of isopure)

Don't Waste Your Money- Shop After Pre & Post Diets Given By Md
NDN_RN replied to IsaacsGram's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Unless you are all alone and have no one to go to the store for you, (just in case) i don't see needing to buy one or two days of post op stuff at a time(one bottle of Isopure, or some sort of Protein shakes). I say that but understand there are folks who live super rural and this is not always feesable. A lot of these companies on line have free shipping and ship super fast too. -
