banditchic 83 Posted February 3, 2013 @Jussme. What's your pre-op diet? Mine starts on the 4th and I get 2 Protein Drinks a day and a small meal. No Snacks just Water.< /p> I get Protein drinks, cottage cheese, egg whites, and broth. I have to stay under 1000 calories a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

banditchic 83 Posted February 3, 2013 I hear a lot of you are required to do Clear Liquids a day or two before surgery. My dr hasn't said anything about that to me. I'm assuming that I just do the normal Protein Shake up until the night before? I'll check with my dr, but what requirements do any of you have the day or two before "the BIG day"?
