Be honest lol

On day 3 or 4 I cracked and had like a dozen saltines...lol. I felt so guilty afterwards that I didn't do it again. That was the only "food" I had during my two weeks. I was too afraid of my doc because he was a no b.s. type of guy that would have walked away from the surgery if my liver hadn't shrunk.

On evenings when I was really hungry and needed the feel of something in my stomach, I would have a cup of steamed broccoli. It would take the edge off and I feel helped me to avoid binging on bad things.

I did and still had mine, not encouraging you, just being honest!

Everyone's pre-op diet is different. By the time I started my pre-op, I'd lost 20 pounds just from NUT meetings. So my liver had already shrunk so much, it was only a week long, and I was allowed one lean meal a day, in addition to my 2x Protein shakes. I didn't find this difficult at ALL.

The trick is really just to make sure your liver has shrunk enough that they can work around it. So, I mean, do you want to risk it?

I had 1 week of 5 shakes a day. During that time I ate one French fry and had a cup of broth from Mexican chicken soup. I did totally fine and was able to have my surgery.

My diet was for breakfast a miller light yogurt dinner slimfast shake . For tea 125g chicken 32g brown rice and 45gs ov veg . Sometimes I swap tuna or stake . Surgeon just done my operation yesterday and said my diet was good

Yes, but barely.

Yup

My pre-op diet was not full liquid until 1 day prior but I was limited to one non-liquid meal a day of only lean protein and veggies

I cheated with trail mix on days 1 & 2, and 2 bites of baked chicken on Tuesday, then felt so guilty. No other cheats after, don't want them to touch my liver! Lol

I cheated on my 3rd day of the liquid diet. I had a grilled chicken salad. [emoji39]. I did feel horrible after doing it tho. So I sucked it up and no more cheats. It isn't worth it at the end.

I ate a small piece of grilled chicken on day 2, and had 2oz of LF cottage cheese on days 7, 8, and 9.

I ate a couple pieces of celery today because I was really munchy and I looked on line and I said no celery before surgery. So I called the coordinator of the hospital and she told me no more celery but I would be OK for surgery. She said surgery did not break down really well in your stomach. So no more celery for me. But I did fine that Dannon yogurt 80 cal yogurt's were the bomb. Banana cream excellent, strawberry cheesecake was great haven't tried much more. They are 12 g of protein and 8 to 9 g of carbs
