Can anyone share with me their pre surgery diet? I really want to see what I have to look forward to. You can email to me at avalonnotarypublic at yahoo dot com

My surgeon gave us an option on the pre-op diet. You could either do all liquids (with some pickles) or liquids with one solid meal a day. The solid meal had to be small with only one serving (about 3-4oz) of lean Protein and a serving of non starchy vegetables.

I should probably wait until I get home to look in the manual as this is all from memory, but I think it was 3-4 Protein shakes a day (they had a limit on carbs in the shakes and minimum protein requirements), unlimited sugar free Popsicles, sugar free Jello, broths, bullion, mustard, sugar free mints, other low cal condiments/flavorings and dill pickles on the liquid-only (except the pickles, obviously). If you had a solid meal, reduce one Protein shake.

I did the all liquids and a couple of small pickles with mustard every day. You had to do this for two weeks pre surgery and the last two days HAD to be liquids only (no pickles).

i didn't have a Pre-Op diet other than clear liquids day before. I've been Banded twice & being Sleeved 5/27/15. BMI is 28. My body just stopped tolerating fills. Can't wait to be Sleeved.
