Who had to and who didn't?

Pre-op?

My surgery is the 16th. Its protein shakes and 1 lean/ green ,meal a day for 2 weeks pre-op. Post-op its Clear liquids for 3 weeks then full liquids for 3 weeks. After that is mushy for another 3 weeks. I'm going on memory but I think that's right.

Yes pre op sorry I should have said that. My surgery is Monday and im suppose to be on a 3 day liquid diet well I made it threw all of yesterday but that I failed if I go liquid again tomorrow are they going to know? Im worried there will be stuff in my stomach lol

I think if its a 3 day liquid it's at least partly to have intestines empty. It's also to shrink the liver..

I ate what I wanted up until 2 days before surgery then cut back to clear liquids the day before. Just avoid the foods that enlarge liver. No onions, garlic, cranberries etc. Good luck!

Thank you

I only had to do clear liquids the day before and obviously nothing after midnight or the day of surgery. So, I'm pretty sure it won't be too bad if you "messed up" one out if 3!

That makes me feel better

I had emergency surgery so only had 5 days but had to do clear liquids during that time, beginning when I left my surgery appt
