Pre Op Fasting

I just got my date of procedure 9 24 12. I'm ready but nervous I received my diet of 2 weeks of pure Slim Fast 4 cans a day which is freaking me out. Rn told me my liver has to shrink for procedure and that's why fasting is of extreme importance. I've heard from other workers of the procedure being postponed for not fasting properly. has anyone heard about this?

Yep...it's out there, and has happened. For me, I worked to lose weight, but moreover increase my lung fitness. I did the GNC shakes...Strawberry and Vanilla...life savers right there...and much better than that nasty slimfast gmo crap. I think you should look into GNC...and sugar free carnation pkts with skim milk. Also try active jello puddings at 60-70 calories a container...all allowed. Try Yoplai greek yogurt...very good...100calories. You don't have to do that slimfast.
