Daisee68 2,493 Posted June 15, 2015 You will really need to get the info from your surgeon or NUT as they all seem to have different guidelines. If you are just wanting to try and shed some weight and get used to some guidelines, try out some Protein drinks, limit your carbs, make sure you are getting in at least 64 oz of Water, cut back on carbonation and caffeine. Those habits will all come in handy when you do finally start the actual liver shrinking diet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tshine01 4 Posted June 15, 2015 Usually your surgeons office will let you know what type of liquid diet to start. Some only have to do low carbs so it really depends. Good luck on your journey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Candidate 3,215 Posted June 15, 2015 I agree. Ask your surgeon what is their protocol on the pre op diet and if it would be okay to start early. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
