Pre-op diet... My doctor said 3 days before surgery I have to eat ONLY YOGURT AND WATER I been reading about different diets... Ideas???

I'm surprised at the vast differences in the pre-op diets all of our surgeons request. (It makes me wonder how necessary it is. I'll still follow his instructions....but it does make me wonder, lol)

I'm to be on a liquid diet of sugar-free Carnation instant Breakfast for 1 week.

I think 3 days of yogurt sounds great!

Wow...a couple days or one week sounds great. I have 2 weeks of 5 protein shakes a day and clear liquids. I too question why all the differences but I will follow what the doc says. A couple co-workers had the sleeve and both said the liquid diet was the hardest part. That realization is helping me stay focused! ! Good luck.

My preoperative diet will be 3 to 4 weeks of 4-5 protein shakes, one lean cuisine dinner, salad and a piece of fruit daily.

You are super lucky with only a 3 day preop. Just go with what your doc instructs and ignore the other kinds of preop.

I was given what my diet will be if I am approved for surgery 2 weeks of liquids and Protein shakes...............

ugh

this will be a true test....

I'm not looking forward to my 1 week liquid diet. 2 weeks...whew. That will be tough but I bet you can do it!
