smaller_sav 28 Posted September 5, 2019 Sept. 16th and two week pre-op liver shrinking diet started Monday, 09/01. I was a little mentally unprepared because my approval just went through on Friday, 08/30. It was like oh crap! Pre-Op LSD is Protein Shake for Breakfast and Protein shake for lunch then 4-6oz. lean meat for dinner with approved veggies list. Have to wean off caffeine which has been terrible. But I am so excited it’s almost surgery date!! I just keep telling myself how worth it everything will be!! 1 Iamtspeaks reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KohakuSueda 18 Posted September 5, 2019 I envy those who get food on their liquid diet. My pre op is liquids only (shakes) 4x a day for 2 weeks. I’m starving Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NagathaChristie 95 Posted September 6, 2019 I could not get through a liquid only diet... that is why I am fat! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dee2938 71 Posted September 6, 2019 Mine is September 19th and I started my liquid diet today. I. Am. Miserable! I thought it would be easier. Maybe it will get better but it’s only day 1 and I’m already sick of it. This is why I need the surgery. I’m already ready to give up. But I know I have to do this and I’m sticking with it. 1 smaller_sav reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poppy1214 0 Posted September 6, 2019 My surgery is September 9th. I am on a clear liquid diet for a week. Only 3 more days! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smaller_sav 28 Posted September 6, 2019 I messed up on my preop diet yesterday. I had grilled chicken and some lettuce at lunch and then baked salmon and green Beans at dinner. I am sticking to just shakes today and it is difficult to say the least. My surgery got moved back two days at my request so boo to more days on preop haha. But seriously though I'm thankful it got moved to accommodate work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
