CloserToFine 172 Posted June 4, 2015 What a great blog, Jessica! Your post about hydration is soooooo helpful; I'm bookmarking it for quick reference! I'd love to know whether you think it's okay to blend a banana into a high-Protein smoothie for the pre-op and post-op liquid diets. I'm two weeks away from my surgery date (June 18) and I start the liquid diet next Monday. Keep up the good work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jessica Radcliff 51 Posted June 4, 2015 Yes I think a banana would be fine. Just don't over do it with fruits as some tend to be high in sugars. Hope all goes well. Keep me posted:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted June 4, 2015 My surgeon wouldn't have allowed it pre-op (my pre-op was Adkins phase one) but allowed bananas during my soft phase post-op. Check with your program. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sara51692 162 Posted June 4, 2015 Yeah, my surgeon didn't allow it either. I'm still in full liquids and asked my NUT a very similar question. She said no fruit, not even no-added-sugar apple sauce. Ask your surgeon or NUT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
