Do you need to go on a pre-op diet if so how long. mine in 3 weeks. Yes I am just supposed to eat Protein and no carbs and eat on a salad plate. No sugar. I'm slacking but mentally I can feel myself preparing. My coordinator is supposed to contact me ten days from my date and go over my diet with me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ljinksy 10 Posted March 10, 2013 Yes I am just supposed to eat Protein and no carbs and eat on a salad plate. No sugar. I'm slacking but mentally I can feel myself preparing. My coordinator is supposed to contact me ten days from my date and go over my diet with me. I am on 6th day of pre-op liquid Protein diet. So far so good...2nd day was toughest, but I made it through. The EAS carb control shakes are actually quite tasty...rich dark chocolate is my favorite - they are 17 gms Protein, 3 carbs. I can also have 1% -2% cottage cheese, cream Soups, and Greek yogurt. Having those what they call "full liquids" is really helping to make it easier!

Cherry 71 Posted March 28, 2013 New here too. My date is April 17 - one day before you. I am nervous as hell! I have made a few other posts about lack of support and other things. My Dr's liver-reduction diet is very simple to me. The hardest part is the protien because I HATE shakes or Protein powder. I feel overehelmed in the pre-appointments though. And I want to be sure my house is all cleaned up and the groceries done etc before I am admitted. I feel very overwhelmed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
