I have heard of this. Why?

Me? I was serious during the post op diet. I was a wee bit crazy though, I made melon and cucumber Water, even made a concoction out of pickle juice. I would crush Popsicles and then eat them like a snow cone. I would freeze my Protein drinks and made shaved ice treats out of them too.

Ok now i'm confused. In one post you said you did not do one and in another you said you did and went a wee bit crazy. lol. am i missing something?

I didn't have a pre op diet, but did have a post op diet. Lol.

Technically no. I did loose 50 preop but did not have a 2 week liquid diet.

Didn't have a required pre op diet. Guessy doctor didn't feel my liver size would be an issue. I was seeing a nutritionist for 3 months prior and we were working on changing my habits before sugery so it wasn't too much of a shock. I lost 7 pounds prior. I just had to have the typical liquid 24 hrs prior to sugery.

That hasn't been mentioned to me at all. My preop appointment is on the 12th and my surgery is on the 17th of this month.

Regardless of the liver effect I appreciated the pre-op diet since it helped me prepare for the much tougher post-op diet.

I didn't have a pre-op diet, my Dr said that since my BMI was under 40 in the beginning, a pre-op diet wasn't required, but recommended to eat high protein, which I usually did anyway. My pre op BMI was 32
