@@jmprance - did your surgeon or nutritionist provide any info for the pre-op? IMO I would contact them first because it varies from surgeon to surgeon.

You didn't specify clear, just liquid. I guessed you were referring to the post-op? That was the thread title.

Do you have a pre-op diet to follow as well, since your surgery is in 2 weeks?

My point is that you need to know specifically what your team wants you to do pre and post surgery.

Sorry, maybe I am not understanding your question.

I am confused if you are asking pre or post op and clear or just liquid, and to me, those are completely different scenarios.

This is my surgeon's pre-op allowances. Your surgeon might be different (ex. a lot don't allow the yogurt).

If your surgeon recommends FULL liquid diet (65-75 grams of Protein per day): 14 Days Pre Operative

- All the above Clear liquids

- Protein Liquid supplements - Approximately 1000 calories per day

- Skim, 1% or Soy Milk mixed with whey or soy protein powders (limited to 20 gm protein/serving)

- Fat Free Cream Soups

- Fat Free, Plain Yogurts (not Greek--too thick)

Good luck to you!

They'll give you a list of suggested liquids at nut classes. Everyone differs. After clear, expect Protein shakes, Soups with no chunks, milk, maybe yogurt, all the Clear Liquids still ok.
