No game 14,437 Posted May 27, 2013 What other kinds of things can you eat on your pre op? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustSayMoe 163 Posted May 27, 2013 I'm not sure what your doctor's pre-op diet is like, but I could only have shakes. The shakes could be with or without skim milk. That was the only flexibility I had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rebecca_dsu 241 Posted May 27, 2013 Every doctor's preop diet is a bit different, but for most the point is to shrink the liver by cutting carbs... and noodles are very carby, so I wouldn't think so. Best bet is to not have them today, and call in tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lisha73 97 Posted May 27, 2013 Our Nut said we could use the broth package out fo the noodles not he noodles themselves... 1 No game reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vixynne 695 Posted May 27, 2013 Ramen doesn't really have much to offer in the way of nutrition. The flavoring is often chock full of sodium and MSG. I'd try to find something a little healthier if at all possible. 2 JustSayMoe and Fiddleman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1stBabeBorn5th 51 Posted May 27, 2013 Ramen noodles wouldn't be the best choice. I'm on day 3 of my pre op diet and have only felt hungry once. Try a shake followed by a bottle of Water. Then have a creamy Soup later with a bottle of Water and Crystal light. Eat some Greek yogurt and cottage cheese for Breakfast. There are several different options.

NeverBeTheSameAgain 241 Posted May 27, 2013 I think this feels so much worst because I stopped smoking also...both cold turkey. I NEED some meat 1 Brenda0928 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suzbredo 35 Posted May 27, 2013 Try and hang in there - I know it's hard... I'm on day 2 of my Pre-op (3 shakes a day plus unlimited SF Popsicles, Jello and broth) and I want food, lol. So I keep drinking Water and lots of it if you have to cheat from all liquids I would recommend some of the choices already mentioned like yogurt. You can do this!!! Just keep the end goal in mind 2 Brenda0928 and JustSayMoe reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
