I'm not sure what your doctor's pre-op diet is like, but I could only have shakes. The shakes could be with or without skim milk. That was the only flexibility I had.

Every doctor's preop diet is a bit different, but for most the point is to shrink the liver by cutting carbs... and noodles are very carby, so I wouldn't think so.

Best bet is to not have them today, and call in tomorrow. ;)

Our Nut said we could use the broth package out fo the noodles not he noodles themselves...

Ramen doesn't really have much to offer in the way of nutrition. The flavoring is often chock full of sodium and MSG. I'd try to find something a little healthier if at all possible.

Ramen noodles wouldn't be the best choice. I'm on day 3 of my pre op diet and have only felt hungry once.

Try a shake followed by a bottle of Water. Then have a creamy Soup later with a bottle of water and Crystal light.

Eat some Greek yogurt and cottage cheese for Breakfast. There are several different options.

I think this feels so much worst because I stopped smoking also...both cold turkey. I NEED some meat

Try and hang in there - I know it's hard... I'm on day 2 of my Pre-op (3 shakes a day plus unlimited SF Popsicles, jello and broth) and I want food, lol. So I keep drinking water :) and lots of it ;) if you have to cheat from all liquids I would recommend some of the choices already mentioned like yogurt. You can do this!!! Just keep the end goal in mind :)

Day 1 and 14 to go!Yes it is so difficult!!! I did ok but I feel ur pain.. Lol... I thought like I was starving and then I Just had a protein shake with the Jell-O. Everybody keeps saying that it gets easier I hope so because this $&@) is for the birds. Lol.. We can do this focus everyone focus!

Day one complete!!

Only 9 more pre-op to go!!

Yayy we did it :)
