It really depends on what your surgeon has prescribed. I know some who were strictly on liquids for two weeks, others a specific diet and my surgeon just told me to start eating just healthy food that will be the same as after the surgery. I'd call your office and ask them. Best wishes! This was the BEST decision I made.

I agree with Jena talk to your doc, every pre-op seems so different. I am on my pre-op diet now. I can have anything I can get threw a straw within reason- no milkshakes!

3oz of 1 of the following grilled fish, chicken, shrimp, steak.

I would do Protein Shakes 2 a day min.(they really want you to drink 4-6)

I would have salad with chicken or shrimp, I would do fish with side salad. I did do Salad Dressing used low fat and very small amount.

Cut out most of your fatty foods, take out food. gave up caffeine, no pop even diet. 8 cups of Water a day. You will feel like you are floating in the beginning LOL......

2 days before surgery liquids(soups, broth, Protein Drinks, Jello, Popsicle) only,

24 hours before surgery only Clear Liquids (water, broth, Popsicle, jello)

I'm happy to help, but I do need to know your surgeons requirements first. Is it a liquid diet/ low carb diet?

It seems like every doctor is different, or perhaps it depends on people's starting weights, labs etc.. To be perfectly safe you should call your doctor's office. If they just gave you general guidelines....I saw my doctor yesterday and it was..gain NO weight before surgery. No sodas, cakes, pastries,cookies,candy,crackers,pretzels,popcorn, grapes, rice, potatoes and white bread. Limit carbs, eat Protein, start a non joint stressing exercise..ie walking, swimming, Water aerobics..4 days before surgery no red meat, no pork and no lettuce. Day before full liquids.
