katherine1 2 Posted December 10, 2015 Hi I'm having surgery tomorrow morning. Did anyone cheat on the liver shrinking diet? I had some ryvita two days ago and a spoonful of mashed potato today. I'm worried that they are not going to be able to do my bypass?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Threetimesacharm 1,400 Posted December 10, 2015 Yes it is very hard to stick to such a rigid pre-op diet(without having a tool yet). You will be fine!! Best wishes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katherine1 2 Posted December 10, 2015 Hi three times a charm. I'm so worried about it. What about the potato? It's supposed to be low carb high Protein I stuck to it religiously the first week. No problem at all.ive just struggled this week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrs kaje 347 Posted December 10, 2015 I stuffed up mine a couple of times in the second week. I just made sure I stuck to it afterwards (about the last four days). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dar200 285 Posted December 11, 2015 Look up how many carbs are in a tablespoon of mashed potatoes. You will probably see that a tablespoon isn't harmful. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
