What Is Your Pre-Op Diet? Did You Have One? If So What Did It Entail?

I have to do 2 weeks of low carb. No more than 40 carbs in a day.

I just had all my pre-op testing done today and I asked the surgeon if there was a pre-op diet they wanted me to follow. I was told to basically do what I was doing and lose more weight if possible but' date=' definitely do not gain. Well seems to me, there would be something mores strict at least within 3-4 days of the surgery but, nope. The PA I asked said where she trained they had one and she was in the process of suggesting it at this hospital but, consider myself grandfathered because they haven't implemented any changes yet. Well...to be honest...whatever is going to keep the safest during surgery I'll do!

So I'd like to know if you're on a pre-op or if you had a pre-op diet...what was it? For how long did you have to do it? Any info would be helpful
