So my surgery is Thursday im going through alot of emotions scared nervous excited etc well I have to do the 1 day clear diet does anyone know why some people ger 1 day or 3 day or 2 weeks?

Because surgeon's have their favorite ways of doing things. I was on Optifast for two weeks, but on only clear liquids for the day before, and NPO after midnight of surgery day.

Mine 3 days

I have been on a liquid diet for a week, but no instructions to do clear liquids for 24 hours. Yep, all the docs have their own ideas about pre/post op diet. My surgery is tomorrow.

Hi sleeve buddy! I'm on thurs as well and on day 2 of my clear liquid only diet. Felt ok yesterday but feeling nauseous today. Good luck to you thurs!!!

Thanks for the replies everyone yea I kinda figured it was just how surgeons like to do it @ Melissa are you nervous ..im more excited then anything but also not looking forward to a hospital stay

Good luck to the rest of you this week are any of you scared or just excited?

I am not nervous right now-it's like my brain has decided to block it out like it's not real. Strange I know. Now wed night I'll probably be in full freakout mode lol. I'm not looking forward to being in the hospital either. I don't like relying on others to care for me. I'm afraid of being sick after surgery. And in pain. I'm sure we'll do great. I'm trying to keep a really positive attitude about the whole thing.
