Hi, I'm new to the site but as I have been reading up on forums that have been posted, I noticed that most pre-op diets were between 7- 14 days long. Some diets were all liquid diets and other were allowed some solids (mainly protein). My surgeon requires that I go on a 4 week all liquid diet (protein shakes, broth, sugar free jello/popcicles). Has anyone else had to go this long on nothing but liquids? Also if you guys could give me any advice/recipes/recommendations for getting through this first part I'd greatly appreciate it!!!

THANKS!!!

My nutitionist told me about people who have to do 3 months of pre op! It's different for everyone, my mum did 2 weeks but mines only 1.

I'm currenly on day 2 of a 3 day liquid diet. Protein shakes, SF jello and popsicles and broth.

I'll be on a 14 day pre-op diet - first two and last two days are all liquid and protein shakes and lean cuisine for days 3-12.
