Hi! So I am on day 5 of my 14 day pre-op diet and I know the goal is to shrink my liver.

I haven't cheated or anything, but I do want to know if anyone has ever gone through the Pre-op diet, didn't cheat, and still didn't get their surgery done due to their liver not shrinking enough?

I know I should not be worried but I'm starting to freak out EVERYTHING lol.

I don't think there is a goal for a specific amount to shrink. The goal is to shrink as much as they think needed for a safe surgery. Just stick to the plan and your surgery will happen, Good Luck!!

I did cheat a little bit and I still had surgery. I think you have absolutely nothing to worry about.

I was a little worried about this but for nothing. I followed the plan, fell off the wagon one time and then kept on the plan again for the last 5 days and I dropped 25lbs. Everyone is different just do what you are supposed to and if you stumble, keep going.

I think it is referring to the Liver Shrink Diet, but I liked it better when I thought she dropped acid.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
