Well the thing is that every ones DR has a different pre op diet so sticking to one specific diet does not ensure a more successful surgery. I would do 90% liquids and if you absolutely must have something then have a zero carb snack or meal. Just do whatever you have to do to shrink your liver' date=' start the weight loss momentum, and keep your surgeon happy.[/quote']
Well as I said before, I think it is smart to follow your doctor's orders. They know what is best for your body and how to get your liver to the size they want.

Well my November buddies' date=' I start my 2 week liquid diet tomorrow (Monday) and I'm kinda scared! It's going to be hard and I'm going to be so cranky to be around! My poor husband and kids!Just feel like I need a little love here...you all, better than anyone, know what I'm going through!
Thanks for reading. I just needed to vent.[/quote']
You will do great! I just finished day 4 of my 21 day liquid diet and my body is finally accepting what I'm doing to it. It will be hard for the first few days but hold on and don't give in! You will most likely find that yours constantly giving yourself pep talks...I am!

I found these today at Wal-Mart! A good change periodically from chicken or beef broth! I'm having the tortilla one right now- pretty good but spicy!

Dr. Kuhn at Medical City! I am scheduled for my sleeve in early November but I already went to my pre op appointment and pre admitted to the hospital. Him and his staff are fantastic and I feel so informed and comfortable about the surgery.

As hard as it is, I would follow your surgeons orders. I'm on day four of a 21 day liquid diet and I'm already 7 pounds down! I've heard that the more you stick with your pre op diet, the more successful your surgery will be!

Good luck! starting my pre-op on Oct 31st!!
Thanks! Good luck on your pre op and surgery! It is tough the first few days into the liquid diet but I keep reminding myself it will definitely be worth it!
