How important is it that the pre-op diet is liquid?



Recommended Posts

That's awsome! At least you know what he wants from you now. You are getting off a lot easier than me. Then again, when I started my BMI was 51. I have to do the liquids for 10 days. I start Monday....pray for me. I have a feeling I'm going to need it. :nervous Let us know how it goes.

What really is important is being willing and able to comply with your Doctor's orders. Every doctor seems to be different, but success will be forthcoming is you treat yourself well!

      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.
