Anyone having surgery in November?

Thanks. It amazes me how each surgeon has their own rules for the same surgery. Lol

I'm having my surgery at kaiser and we start with a pre op meal plan that we have to follow up until surgery. We have no liquid diet.< /p>

my surgeon also does surgeries for Kaiser in Denver. I wonder if that means there's a chance I won't have a liquid diet too? What's it like? Just super low carb and sugar free?

Here at kaiser in California, we have a 1200 calorie meal plan that's low carb and no sugar. We cannot drink Protein Shakes either

Hi all my surgery is scheduled for November 16,2015. I'm exited to get this done.

My date is November 10. I'm so excited. I can't wait to be on the other side of this! I have my pre op appointments tomorrow, and so far haven't been given a pre op diet. He told me not to gain any weight, but that's all. My brain is in weight loss mode, so I'm doing Protein shakes for Breakfast, a 300 calorie lunch and a 300 calorie dinner, at least for now. Even with that, I've only lost 1 1/2 pounds in 4 days.

Does anyone know why I wasn't given a pre surgery diet?

I am on the 10th too. Not sure why some people don't do preop. I was told to do 2 weeks. Day 3 down 11 to go. I am anxious but so excited as well. Happy to keep in touch. I am in Australia

My two week pre op diet consists of three Protein Shakes a day, one cup of non starchy vegetables, and one TV lean cuisine or weight watchers dinner between 250-300 calories. I do liquids only for the day prior to surgery.

Tried canned broth but it tastes greasy or fatty. It's the low fat kind. I need something not so sweet.

I feel the same. I would rather have something salty or even bland at this point.

I heard from a YouTube video that the broth tastes better if you cook actual chicken noodle Soup and then strain out the broth.

I'm having mine Tuesday, November 3rd! I'm so ready to be on the losers bench. I'm on Day 12 of my liquid diet which is all Clear Liquids and 3 Meal Replacements a day which consist of either a powdered flavored shake, powdered pudding or powdered Soup. I've lost 14 lbs so far and ready for this part to be over. I wish all of you the best of luck with your surgeries and I'll see you on the other side????????
