Pre-Op Liquid diet questions

[coreyandbrett 0]

My nurse was suppose to send me my liquid diet directions that I am suppose to start in the a.m. She sent the wrong form and I can not get a hold of her. If someone has this, can they send me a list of things I can have on a full liquid pre-op diet? I'm sure most are the same. Thank you and btw my big day is October 8th!!!!

Congratulations on being close to surgery!

I didn't have to be on a full liquid diet pre-op, but I did do it post-op, so I will tell you what was allowed for me post-op on full liquids.

-cream Soups, strained

-cottage cheese

-juice, Water, tea, milk --really any liquid that doesn't have sugar and isn't carbonated

-sugar free popsicles

-sugar free Jello

-chicken or beef broth

I hope you got ahold of the nurse and got their guidelines, because it seems everyone's is different, but this is what I was allowed.

I am a nurse and work in a hospital, and our full liquid diet is a little different from this in that we allow pudding and yogurt also. Those things weren't on my list of approved for post-op.
