2 week liquids-scared!

As hard as it is, I would follow your surgeons orders. I'm on day four of a 21 day liquid diet and I'm already 7 pounds down! I've heard that the more you stick with your pre op diet, the more successful your surgery will be!

Well the thing is that every ones DR has a different pre op diet so sticking to one specific diet does not ensure a more successful surgery. I would do 90% liquids and if you absolutely must have something then have a zero carb snack or meal. Just do whatever you have to do to shrink your liver, start the weight loss momentum, and keep your surgeon happy.

I had two weeks of Bariatric Advantage shakes, 3 per day & also 2- 100 cal yogurts. The two day clear liquid (no protein) thing was rough, and I've been drinking Isopure for one week now. Tomorrow begins full liquids for me, so I can have creamy Soup & regular Protein Shakes again.... I cannot wait & may have cream of chicken for Breakfast, lol!!! Lost a bunch of weight though!

Well as I said before, I think it is smart to follow your doctor's orders. They know what is best for your body and how to get your liver to the size they want.
