Hi all! Im on my 1 week liquid pre op diet and my surgery is tuesday the 6th. I havent been able to handle the shakes (i throw them up) but my doctor said i can eat protein bars in place of the shake. My question is... Has anyone else ate bars on there pre op diet and Did there liver shrink enough for surgery and did anyone else feel horrible all over flu like body aches and tire easy? with as little food that ive consumed this week, my liver must be the size of a raison! Lol
