Walter.Sobchak 978 Posted November 10, 2017 I am not a doctor, but I wouldn’t think so. I would try to not do it again however. Stick to your surgeons plan. 1 Johnwife4sure reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once Upon a Sleeve 24 Posted November 10, 2017 Hi! I’m scheduled for Nov 16 as well! One Protein bar a week out won’t affect your surgery. From what my bariatric nutritionist said, the important thing is to stay low carb, low fat in order to deplete the liver’s glycogen stores and use up some of the liver fat (so smaller liver for surgery). Then the 2 days immediately prior, it’s very important to stick to the liquid diet because otherwise you could go into surgery with bits of food still in your digestive system. In that case, some surgeons may still do the surgery but others will close you up without operating. So definitely a bad scenario. I have been having 6 egg whites/day on top of my Protein Shakes, and my bariatric nutritionist is ok with that until the last 2 days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
