lovealways 287 Posted January 8, 2013 Hello all! I'm new to this thread. My surgery date is January 15th!! I started my pre-op diet yesterday however it seems to be much different than what most ppl have to do. I'm to have a Protein shake for Breakfast and lunch , all the green veggies I want and a sensible dinner (which gives me the option of a lean Protein with a salad or a healthy choice, WW or lean cuisine meal). YAY! We have the same surgery date!! 1 Vicki Loichinger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was my pre op diet as well but I had a bad tooth that needed pulled so I ended up doing almost all liquids or full liquids. But I think just knowing I could eat a salad or some meat helped me. I did eat salad a few times. Best wishes 1 one4ozzie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nienie 113 Posted January 8, 2013 I have noticed lots of you have to do the liquid diet. My Surgeon doesn't require anything pre-surgery. I am starting to eat very low carb almost like what i did in induction with Atkins. Again wishing all of you having surgery the best of luck!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
