My Dr said if my liver didn't shrink to where he needed it then when they do surgery and can't keep the liver up they WILL cut you from your breast bone to your belly button. Keep that in mind.

There are so many different versions of what surgeons want pre op. My surgeon only has us do Clear liquids the day before, 24 hours only. He stated why put us throught that stress well have enough of liquid diets after. Although we do have to lose 5% of our weight preop to show we can make those changes. That your surgeon told you he would cut you is so scary. Maybe bmi has something to do with it. When i first saw him i was 39.1 bmi, maybe if i was well over 40 or 50 he would have me do one im not sure.

Blizair09 speaks the truth. If you can't handle the liquid diet now...what are you going to do after you have the surgery? This is a LIFESTYLE change, not a magic pill. Once you have that surgery, its real. EVERY SINGLE DAY is a struggle. I just started a blog that talks about my love and addiction of food. That will never change. I have to start every single day saying that I'm going to eat healthy and do what I should and not cheat. I could eat all day long and if I did, I would start to gain my weight back. This surgery is only a tool to help you get on track.

I wish you the best of luck and I hope that you find the willpower to stay strong. You can do it!

It might also help to check out a few surgery videos on YouTube - when you see the liver retractor being used to physically lift the liver up and out of the way so the surgeon has room to manipulate the stomach, it could be a good visual reminder about why your doctor needs the liver to be as small and "floppy" as possible. It truly is a safety issue during surgery.

I recommend you to start where you are and drink plenty of Water to flush the food you consume through. This way you will get all the toxin out of your body and shrink your liver. Keep in mind this is a long tedious process. Eating this way for two week is nothing if we want to change our life. After surgery we won't be able to eat again for weeks on hand. So stay strong and positive.

This situation is hard. Two-plus years ago when I was prepping surgery, I didn't think I could make it through the pre-op liquid diet. I felt like I was drowning of hunger. It was so hard for me - and for my wife to put up with me. I felt like if I made one little slip, I'd ruin everything. I understand now that wasn't the case. Anyway, good luck to you. If you start feeling hunger that you think you can't control, drop by here for some fresh inspiration. You can do this!
