I'm very excited and told the surgeon as much. I've lost 34 pounds already on the pre-op diet and ready to lose a lot more (hopefully). It can't come soon enough, ready to roll... 1 rokse23 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will be starting my pre-op liquid diet on 3/29. Welcome! Not gonna lie, it's good to see another guy on here going through this process. We're only two days apart in surgery dates so it will be fun to compare notes. All the best! 1 Jim DiCristo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dnclark1982 2 Posted March 25, 2023 April 5th here and I'm a nervous wreck! I have found several Better Than Bullion flavors that are absolutely AMAZING. I'm day 3 on liquid diet and am trying to get creative so I don't get bored with the same things. I haven't got a clear answer on spicy vs plain broth. Anyone have any input? I only ask because the spicy chipolte version is to die for and I want to make sure spice doesn't affect liver shrinkage. 2 rokse23 and BabySpoons reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dskg 20 Posted March 25, 2023 April 5th! I started my low carb pre-op diet a few days ago and have been having the worst headaches. Anyone else have that happen? Will it go away? 3 Prioritizing Myself, BabySpoons and Jim DiCristo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nancylockettmorrison 4 Posted March 28, 2023 Mine is April 4.. Only one week of pre-op diet... Very excited but would love some ideas for the veg part of the pre-op 3 BabySpoons, rokse23 and Jim DiCristo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dskg 20 Posted March 28, 2023 Mine is April 5. I'm also excited. Do you only have to follow one week of pre-op diet or have you already done a week and have one week left? Veggie-wise, I've been having a lot of salad greens, mushrooms and some canned green Beans. My biggest struggle has been with the headaches, fatigue and fogginess from the low carb diet. I'm having a hard time working. 2 rokse23 and Jim DiCristo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
