kltklass 144 Posted January 25, 2014 Follow the pre-op diet and your liver will shrink. You got this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chunky_Dunk 61 Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) My pre op diet was only 3 days of fruitless yogurt and Water. Obviously I don't recommend straying from your doctor's pre op diet orders, but I did mine in 3 days, so whatever your doc recommends will work. As Kitklass mentioned...if you stick with your pre-op diet you will do great! Good luck to you! God bless! Edited January 25, 2014 by Chunky_Dunk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sweetjam69 20 Posted January 25, 2014 I was terrified about that also, I was so scared that at the time of surgery the Dr would not do the surgery because my liver was to far over my stomach. My Dr. stressed Protein, protein, protein. get plenty of protein and you will be fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MegaBob 46 Posted January 25, 2014 My preop was two weeks of only Liquid Protein. I never cheated and had no pain after surgery. Take the preop seriously it will shrink the liver and prepare you for only liquids post op, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
