Stressed About Business Lunch

Please Help,

I'm on day 3 of pre-op diet and doing well. I have to take clients to lunch today. I can't not have something as that will appear weird. Do you think it's ok to have a salad with chicken and. Fat free dressing? I'm having surgery 11/28.

What kind of pre-op diet are you on? My doctor doesn't do all liquid pre-op, so that would be fine for me...but if your's does, maybe a broth based soup?

Definitely depends on your doctor's pre-op diet. My doctor allowed me to eat protein and a vegetable (one meal a day and protein drinks the others). But if only liquids, then try going w/ a soup.

I'm allowed to have 4 oz of meat and 1/2 cup veggies per day. I think I would either do a chicken breast with a side of veggies or order a bowl of soup and drink the broth? I'm on day 2. Have you guys had the headaches start yet?

I'm on 800-1000 calories per day. shakes, broths, SF Jello but I can have 2oz of chicken or yogurt, cottage cheese and 2 cups of raw veggies. I think I'll be fine.

On my post op liquid phase, I had a bunch of work lunches, orded soup and mumbled something about dental work.

if in doubt, always call and ask your doctor...
