What's your pre op diet like?



Recommended Posts

Just curious what everyone's pre op diet consists of. I'm on day 2 of my 14 day pre op and it is rough! I know it's all worth it though

Here's mine:

Day 14-8

Morning : Protein Shake

Afternoon : Protein shake

Dinner: 3 oz of very lean meat with one cup cooked vegetable

Also may have:

1 low fat cheese stick

1 light, non fat yogurt6oz

1 packet of Quaker Oats Weight Control oatmeal

3 oz of fresh fruit

Unlimited RAW vegetables

Day 7-2

Protein Shakes for Breakfast, lunch and dinner

Also may have:

1 low fat cheese stick

1 6 oz yogurt

3 oz fresh fruit

Unlimited RAW vegetables

Day before surgery liquid diet no red Jello or liquids

all I could have as 5-6 Protein Shakes per day, plus unlimited sugar free beverages, sugar free popsicles, and sugar free Jello. I could also have something like 8 oz of Tomato juice, V8, or broth (I'm guessing they limited it because of the sodium). No solid food at all - so you're lucky.

Yep. This is mine too. I did get her approval to add (in 1 of the Protein shakes): 1oz frozen blueberries, 1 1/2oz frozen chopped spinach, and psyllium. I can also add 6g of peanut "flour". I have about 10-12 days of it. Then 2 days prior to surgery, it switches to Clear Liquids only with a bowel prep. I'll do clear Protein Drinks at that time.

      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.
