ArtSong 291 Posted August 28, 2012 I have a 10 day preop diet but starting to think I have a odd one. I can have cottage cheese, cream Soups, oatmeal, coffee and tea milk V-8 juice, pudding and yogurt along with the regular sugar free stuff popsicles Jell-O. I don't read a lot about others with a 10 day diet like that :0. No word about Protein in it no shakes no bars . For Breakfast I can have one cup of oatmeal a cup of coffee. Midmorning snack yogurt . lunch I can have one cup cream Soup cottage cheese and a glass of milk. Afternoon snack pudding. dinner I would do what I did for lunch. And an evening snack. This seems like a lot to me is this a normal perop diet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

COsleeveDude 273 Posted August 28, 2012 It's basically the post-surgery week 2 diet. Isn't gonna hurt, will probably help shrink the liver some. Every program is different, I guess. That's what I thought I don't have high blood pressure sleep apnea or diabetes But it still. Seems like a odd diet. 1 ArtSong reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caroless 18 Posted August 29, 2012 it seems like it is just trying to get you some lower calories with a good mix of Proteins carbs and nutrients... likely a normal lower cal balanced diet to keep you from the "last supper" mentality 1 ArtSong reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdefabio 73 Posted August 29, 2012 it sounds fine to me. very much like my pre op diet. I did have some Protein Shakes though. Your nutritionist must that's enough Protein. They mainly want to shrink the fat in your liver to make the surgery a little easier for them. The protein shakes should come full force in the two weeks post op. Good Luck. 1 ArtSong reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
