Hello all

So the last time i posted i was having anxiety about the blood work and quitting smoking. So far i have been smoke free for 3 weeks and I had the pre op testing done on friday. They said the results would be in the same day and I havent heard anything... Well that was friday but I'm going to remain positive and get through this week as calmly as possible. Oh did i mention my surgey is scheduled for next Wednesday the 26th?? Anyway im required to do a liquid diet with popsicles and boiled eggs being the only solids i can eat until surgery.. Wish me luck with that one since boiled eggs give me heart burn😡

Do you only have to do the pre-op diet for one week? I have to do it for 3 weeks I think. Which of the drinks you're allowed are the easiest to get down?

And congratulations on quitting smoking for 3 weeks already!

Stick to the liquid diet, it's SO IMPORTANT to make sure your liver is not too large for the surgery. And congrats on quitting smoking, it's the best decision you'll have ever made.
