What to eat before surgery
redlion72 replied to afer0841's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgeon recommends at least 2wk liquid diet preop: 4-6 HIGH protein shakes, 2 protein bars, and a banana (to keep up potassium levels) daily. (We use Bariatric Advantage products. They taste great!) The idea is to shrink the liver and the interstitial fat to make it easier and safer to maneuver around it during surgery. Good luck!
