Always follow your surgeons instructions - there's a reason for what they do! Some don't worry too much about liver size' date=' mine did - if your liver was a certain size, he'd close you up and not do the surgery. That's the point of the all-liquid diets.

There are lots of ways to make it palatable for the two weeks before surgery - and the full liquids stage after.

Does he have you on a specific Protein shake? If so, you can add extracts and spices (cinnamon, allspice, etc.) to vary the flavors. If not, you can also make homemade Soups and stews and puree them (just omit any Pasta, rice, or potatoes for the two weeks).

If your interested, we have lots of ideas on our first episode. Just click the link in my signature for the YouTube channel, then go to the episode called "Preventing Yuck in a Cup".

Hope this helps! :-) Good luck![/quote']
