liane 30 Posted July 17, 2013 My rny is August 15th. My information says I only have to do liquid diet 3 days prior. I cannot take motrin or naproxen from here on out (30 days prior to surgery). I always wonder why some drs do a long liquid diet than others. I should know more at my nutrition class on the 31st. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ponchik 77 Posted July 17, 2013 Lucky you! Maybe the length of the diet depends on initial weight? I don't know, but I know I'd be happier with 3 days instead 2 weeks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shawna29 60 Posted July 17, 2013 I don't have to do the pre-op diet, but I did have to lose at least 14lbs before they would submit me to insurance. SD:8/21/13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
