What exactly is the preop diet?

Confirm with your surgeon before doing it as you may not need too mine did not make us do pre op diet.... No need to go thru it if they don't require it

My date is August 22 (trying to get a week earlier if possible). I've seen some people say they started earlier than two weeks for their liver shrinkage diet. What does it actually consist of? I haven't met with the nutritionist or had the one required class yet. Those appointments are in early August. I have an aversion to powdered shake type stuff so I want to know if it's possible to get premixed shakes. I would at least like to test different flavors.

Good luck on your surgery. The preop diet consist of a modified liquid diet but the length of time varies from individual to individual. I suggest you follow the instructions of your surgeon and Nutritionist. All the best.
