I was supposed to be banned on Jan 26th but my pre-op tests showed some gallstones and they are going to remove my gallbladder first. I should get banned 2 to 3 weeks after that surgery. Congrats on everything and good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lrh 0 Posted January 17, 2011 I go a few days later on Feb 3rd. Start my Liq diet on the 20th. It's really not that bad. Im not a milk drinker and If I can do it anyone can. I think it may be easyer than having limited choices of food. This way there is no bad choices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
