Chia Seeds During Pre-Op Diet?

[made2beme 119]

I wonder if we can use them during pre-op diet? It would certainly help with hunger, just wonder if it would "expand" the tummy or liver....dumb question I know but I dont want to take any chances.

If we can....Im getting some today, cuz I am starving!!!!!!!!!!! (day 4)

Call your doc on this one. I can think of pros and cons to eating something like that. My biggest worry would be that you'd still have some in your tummy on surgery day and end up with a piece of the seed caught in your incision/staple line.
