Beachy 2 Posted October 25, 2015 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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thisfathasgot2go 235 Posted October 25, 2015 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
