I cheated for 1 meal during my pre-opt



Recommended Posts

I had scrambled eggs Tuesday night before surgery on Thursday. I guess it depends on what you did and when you did it! Every doctor seems to be different in pre-op diet requirements.

It's ok, that 2 or 3 week liquid phase pre op is brutal. I was so HANGRY!!!!!

You're not going to do it perfect. I think I cheated twice. I remember it being a very difficult period, so you're not alone! Don't give up! The surgery is going to make it a lot easier to stay on track. You can do it!!!! :)

You need to call your surgeon and tell him what you have done. Only he can tell you if you have caused a problem with your surgery.

Call your team asap and ask. Please don't take risks and not tell them. They might open you up and then decided not to do the surgery (it has happened before) and you don't want that do you. Please don't go by people on the boards saying things like 1) I didnt have to do anything until 12 hrs before surgery 2) You will be fine, I cheated and was fine, so you will be too.

You have to follow what your surgeon wants you to, not theirs.

I really hope the surgery goes ahead, once you have discussed with your surgeon. Please let us know how things go !!

Kate :)

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
