I can't imagine being on the liquid diet that long I have to go all liquids 72 hours before my surgery an then awhile afterwards Good luck on your new journey

You too!!!

It is interesting how each person is different with the preop diet. I did not have to do one. I am starting to think it prepares you because I am 5 days postop and I am having a hard time with liquids and am starting to get hungy. Good luck to you!

Yes I think it does prepare you because you have no choice after the surgery so I'm thankful my dr has put me one it

My doc puts his patients on it to shrink the size of your liver pre op so the surgery is easier and to promote weight loss before the band. It will be interesting that's for sure lol

Yes that is what I have heard also to shrink the liver /. Soften it so this helps me so much to stick to the dr orders in fear that my liver won't be what it is supposed to be an the surgery delayed. I have learned these past week my mind has played a big big BIG part of my weight issue.

It absolutely is the biggest part of weight loss!! And the hardest part to get around
