Yes! IT HAS BEEN TOUGH! In fact, I have messed up a few times not sticking exactly to my plan! It didnt help either when I read a forum on here about people binge eating for an entire week right up to their surgery! I went four months without having fast food, then I broke and ate Taco Bell! I go tomorrow to my pre-op class so Im worried now that I have not met my 20lb loss and they will have to push my surgery out....

Congrats on your Date! And for sure I am wishing you the disciplined mind to stay on track!

The details of my plan are 1 protein shake in the morning, one protein shake in the afternoon and then four ounces of meat and a little bit of veggies. I started April 23rd... and then two days before my surgery I go Clear liquids.

May 28th here! Starting my pre-op diet tomorrow! Two weeks early, I know but I gotta shrink this liver!!

I am on the same pre-op as you. I am on my fourth day. Hating it but doing it.

My preop is way different. 6am protein shake (8oz), 9am shake, 12pm shake, 3pm shake, 6pm 3oz meat, 1 cup non starch veggies, 1 fruit choice. All the sug. Free jello, Popsicles and crystal light I want. Looks like ill be spending much of my time on the toilet!!lol!

Is anyone on a full liquid diet for their pre-op using meal replacement shakes? I have to do 3-5 shakes a day having only 700-900 calories a day. I'm trying to figure out how I am going to manage.
