slowtogo 301 Posted April 22, 2013 How far away from surgery are you? Post surgery, diet is largely Protein and veggies. So south beach or Atkins. Take your sodas out of your diet, all sugars- or at least items with sugars greater than 5 mg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
okkiediva 3 Posted May 16, 2013 I have had 4 different doctors recommend south beach diet, pre-op. The closer to surgery date you will need to give up fizzy drinks, and follow a pro-op diet your dr likes. They differ from doctor to doctor. Good Luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
