The variety of pre-op diets people have is so interesting to me. I wonder why doctors choose one over the other.
I would kill for some solid food these days. My surgery is in a week and I swear I'm fantasizing about the purée stage. Never thought I would say that.... ha!

Hey all. I've been lurking on this board for the past week or so, but this is my first actual post.
I'm almost through the first week of my 2-week pre-op liquid diet. While I'm not necessarily hungry, I definitely want food. Actual solids. Never thought I would look forward to cottage cheese so much....
Anyway - I don't seem to be losing much on the liquid diet, which surprised me. 4 pounds in 4 days. On any other diet that would be GREAT, but lordy - on 1000 calories or less a day it doesnt seem like much. While I know there is no "normal" for this thing, I was just wondering what other people have experienced.
Thanks in advance!

Totally newbee to this site. It so nice to see.
My surgery is scheduled for the 18th (in NYC) so I've just started my two-weeks (!!) of liquid diet.

Target has "soup starters" which are essentially actual Soup without the solids in it. They have pho, ramen, Mexican, tortilla, and Italian. They have far far more flavor than just plain chicken/beef broth and are a bit richer. I've found them to be very helpful.
still.... this part sucks!
