alexis14217 1 Posted March 5, 2009 Hello, I am HAVING my band put in on March 25th so..in a few weeks. I have gone through all of these pre-opt blogs and see all these liver shrinking diets people have done..My doctor just told me to start it 3 days prior, but I would like to start it as soon as possible actually. Can someone give me a detailed summary of what I should do. Thank you for reading... Stephanie:sleep: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RestlessMonkey 7 Posted March 6, 2009 Honestly? If your doctor doesn't think you need one, trust him (or her). You are trusting them to cut into you (lap or not, that is what happens!) so trust them to know if you need a longer preop diet or not. If you've read here, you've read everyone seems to have slightly different preop instructions. Do what your doctor says. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
