odinsbabe 0 Posted May 8, 2021 So I’m 3 days from surgery on a liquid diet and messed up bad I had 5 potato chips. Have I completely ruined surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meggs353 118 Posted May 8, 2021 The pre-op diet’s purpose is to quickly reduce fat around the liver to make surgery safer. So 5 chips won’t sabotage that. But, get right back on track and definitely follow the guidelines for 24-hrs pre-surgery as those requirements will make sure your digestive system is ready for surgery. Good luck!

skyewolfe 92 Posted May 9, 2021 Don’t worry it’s not a huge deal if you messed up once. Two days into mine and I ended up stuck at my nieces with no drinks and no way to get any. They made lasagna for dinner so I had one slice. It was either that or I wouldn’t be able yo eat until dinner the next day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
