Please keep posting how you are doing. I start mine on Monday. Two weeks on this. Nothing solid for me including yogurt or outage cheese.< /p>

No carbs.. Oatmeal and apple sauce are carbs. Youll get a few carbs in shakes, but try to remember liver shrinkage is the goal. Youll get that with low carb and the high Protein keeps you from being hungry. Good luck! Im sure you will do well.

My pre op diet includes 1/2 cup oatmeal, farina, or grits for Breakfast with shake. i can also have unsweetened applesauce sugar free Jello and sugar free pudding low fat low sugar yogurt. Not all hospitals and surgeons follow the same exact diet.

Every doctor/clinic has it's own version of the pre-op diet. Mine was two Protein Shakes a day, plus one meal consisting of 4 ounces of a low fat meat (chicken or fish, for example) and a half cup of veggies. I was not hungy at all.

My dr said low carb veggies are ok
