I have already began incorporating the pre-op liquid diet into my routine a week earlier than required, just so I could have an easier transition to the full week next week.

My surgery is scheduled on July 29th!

My surgeon does not require a pre-op diet however I would like to know what yours consists of because I might do it anyway.

Thanks

My Doc instructed me to do 7 days of liquids. My plan is to do 7 days of HMR shakes (5/day) and 3 days of Clear Liquids right before the surgery. I'm scheduled for Aug 1st.

My surgery is July 23rd! I start my 10 day liquid diet on Saturday! I am able to have 4 Protein Shakes a day and sugar free Jello and broth plus lots of Water including crystal light. I have been mentally preparing for this for the last 3 weeks so I think I'll be ok. I think the hardest part will be getting in the water; I've always struggled with that but I know it will be required after surgery! Good luck all!

My doctor only requires a one week liquid diet prior to surgery. This week I started incorporating Protein Shakes for breakfast and supper, but eating a small healthy lunch. I've been drinking Water with my sugar-free flavors. Next week, my diet will consist of 2-3 Protein shakes a day (I'm using Syntrax Matrix), broth, sugar-free popsicles/pudding/jello, fat free milk. I will switch to Decaf coffee and tea with artificial sweeteners, neither is that big of a change for me. I will have the liquid only diet the day before my surgery. I have my pre-op appt with my surgeon on July 17th, I also attend my required nutrition class that morning. I am so ready for this!! Good luck to all!!

Has your doctor required you to do a pre-op diet also ?

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
