Did you eat the day before surgery due to no pre op diet. If so, what did you eat?

I had 2 weeks of 2 protein shakes and 1 meal per day. Today is my day before surgery and I'm on all clear liquids. Water, Broth, Jello ect. Trying to keep myself busy so I can ignore my growling tummy. I also plan to go to bed nice and early. I have to be at the hospital at 6 am.

My doctor required 5 shakes a day. Water 64 ounces, sugar-free jello, broth, and sugar-free Popsicles. I wonder why your doctor allowed you to eat during your pre-op?

I wasn't allowed to eat only shakes. Im just asking because everyone pre op diet is so different.

I ate an Italian fest......... My doctor said since I did good in my 2 week preop so he said it was ok but then fast 12 hrs before the surgery...........

It is just the policy of the center I go to. It is a Bariatric Center of Excellence so I'd say they know what they are doing. The meal had to be lean protein & veggies. I was also allowed a veggie or fruit in between shakes. They said that the diet shrinks your liver but also keeps you nutritionally sound. But today is Jello, broth, juice, popsicles ect.

Thank you my sleeve sisters and brother for all the well wishes. I am doing fine and in my room at the hospital. Minimum pain and can't believe I'm a sleever now and on the loser bench. I wish all of those after me a safe and smooth recovery.

The only thing I had the day before was a Greek Yogurt.

Glad to hear all is going well. Congrats!
