Liquid Diet Requirement

Does everyone have to complete the "10 day" pre-surgical diet?

No, it varies from patient to patient and surgeon to surgeon. I did not have a pre-op diet and was only told not to eat anything after midnight the night before...

YES! Omg i hat it i started the 20th this month and im scheduled for surgery 29th of this month. Its really difficult but I keep thinking mushies in a week and a half or so:) i can have broth, sf Jello, Unjury, a half cup cottage cheese and 8 oz of milk. Thats it. I miss food. Itll be over soon and it wont be so hard once we are sleeved.

My surgeon didn't really set a "goal weight" but I would say 100- 115 lbs away from my starting weight would probably be ideal
