xojessny 11 Posted May 12, 2014 It going! Starting to get a little easy my Savior is I found a sugar free Slurpie how it going for you?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlwaysLorri 31 Posted May 12, 2014 It's going ok for me as well. Suger-free slurpie sounds divine! I am beginning my 4th week of the post-op diet. So tired of the Protein shakes, my buds need something else. I'm allowed two cups of veggies or non-fat Soup. I've opted for Tomato. what are you able to have on your post op diet? I've learned that there are different pre-op diets on this forum. I am going to the pre-admission testing today. They said I'll be meeting with my anesthesiologist, run some more tests that weren't done at the medical clearing testing. Have you had yours yet? I'm a bit nervous but eager to go through with it.

babish 19 Posted May 13, 2014 Hi there. I'm new to this site. I'm having my surgery next Thursday the 22nd. I start my 3 day pre-op diet Monday. I'm a little nervous. Would love to share my experience with someone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xojessny 11 Posted May 13, 2014 You only have to do 3days??? Lucky you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
babish 19 Posted May 13, 2014 Yes. It's 3 days liquid only. Protein Shakes, chicken broth, sugar free Popsicles (no red or purple) and Jello. I've heard most people have a much longer preop diet but it includes some foods correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
