2 Week Pre-Op - 1000 Calorie or Liquid Diet ?



Recommended Posts

I'm on a 1000 calorie pre-op diet and from what I see posted, most seem to be on a liquid diet. I'm wondering why?

It depends on your NUT or surgeon's advice after they meet with you and analyze your situation.

I was on a 1200-1500 calorie intake menu for 3 months prior to surgery where I had to lose 10% of my starting weight. I did not have an immediate pre-op diet since I lost the weight. I was just told by my surgeon not to gain weight between my consult and the surgery date or he would cancel.
