My surgeon has me on a very strict are op diet. 3 Protein Shakes a day and up to 250 cals of selected veggies. I'm on day 7 and I was doing so good. I thought I was strong enough to make a nice dinner for my family. Well I ended up eating a small kids bowl of lasagna. How screwed am I? I still have a mother week, but do would it still affect my liver? Please no harsh comments like I should have more will power, bla bla bla. I already feel bad enough

I can't write any harsh comments about willpower because the only pre-op diet I had to do was to not eat solids the day before surgery. I really don't think a small portion of lasagna would throw you far off course. Just get back onto it. Is there someone else who could make the family meals to ease your temptation until after your surgery? If not, then perhaps having a shake right before you make their dinner would help you so you're full.

I think you're fine, but you should probably call your doctors office to make sure. I only had a 7 day pre-op so you should have plenty of time to get back on track

You should be fine. My pre-op diet started two days before Thanksgiving. I was told I could have a light dinner by my NUT, which is much more than a small portion of lasagna. I lost about 8 lbs. during that time...So don't worry yourself. Stay strong and good luck!

The main thing that is going to suck is that you likely kicked your body out of ketosis by eating carbs. That means you are going to have to go through the transition back into ketosis again, which means headaches and fatigue like you probably had the first few days of the diet.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
