SimplySue 131 Posted October 19, 2014 (edited) Is there anyone else out there who didn't have to follow a preop diet except Clear Liquids the day before? Edited October 19, 2014 by SimplySue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sschoch30 60 Posted October 19, 2014 I'm going to Dr. Pallapothu in Binghamton, NY. I find the semi liquid diet challenging especially on the weekends. During the week i seem to do better since my job is so demanding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sschoch30 60 Posted October 19, 2014 Everyone's Dr. Is different. Mine wants 2 weeks on 2-3 Protein Shakes and a lean Protein, veggies, and no more than 80g of carbs per day. For a total of 800 cals per day. Nothing after midnight the night before surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
