When is your surgery scheduled for? When do you start your pre-op diet? What does your surgeon require for pre-op diet?

My surgery is set for 1/19

Pre op diet starts 1/5 and is the same as the stage two post-op diet

My date is January 8. I am on a two week liquid shake diet. 1000 calories!

Jan 15, 2 week preop diet, started a few days early. Sugar free liquids, coffee, tea, low carb protein shakes, that's it.

My surgery is on 01/29/14, starting liver shrinking diet on 01/15.

January 15th here. My surgeon doesn't require a pre op diet other than clears the day before. I'm ready for post-op, though--got several different kinds of protein shakes laid in to see which I like.

1/22/2015 - pre-op starts 1/1!

January 9th!! Pre op started December 19. 3 week strict pre op. 14 of those days liquid diet.

Surgery is 1/6! Woo!

Pre-op diet started 12/23. Diet consists of limiting intake to 1300kcal/day, at least 110g of which comes from Protein.

All presurgical appointments are complete and no red flags anywhere. All systems go for surgery in 6.5 days! I can't wait!
