My Dr didn't put me on any special diet leading up to my surgery, just liquid diet the day before plus a laxative.

All doctors are different.

Good luck!

The diet is more to prepare you for surgery... but not everyone needs to do it. It's supposed to shrink your liver.

No special diet for me either.

.

My diet? Clear liquids the day before surgery, NPO after midnight. That's IT!!

Don't worry about not having to do a pre-op diet. Count your blessings.

My surgery date is May 4, 2011 at OSU medical center and my physician also did not require any type of diet. Just nothing to eat or drink after midnight.

I am getting nervous :(

Don't worry. My dr. didn't require any pre-op diet. Just stop eating and drinking by midnight. I'm almost 8 months since surgery. Down 75+ lbs. He did put me on a liquid diet for the month following surgery. Up until my first fill at 6 weeks. I guess that was to get me through bandster hell and to continue losing.

Good luck and don't worry
