I just started the two week pre op liquid diet 3 days ago and what I can only eat/drink are high in carbs. Does anyone know how to keep the carbs down?

Hi There. I am on my pre op diet also except mines consist of low carb diet w/less than 20 grams of carb. I bought the Protein Premeir drinks recommended by my nutritionist they only have 5 grams of carb and low in fat 160 calories and most of they taste pretty good. I hope this helps and Good Luck on your journey!!

For my pre op diet, I used slim fast high protein shakes from Walmart, along with a few premier protein, but I saved most of them for post op. Both were low in carbs.

Good luck! So far, I thought the pre op stage was the hardest!

My doc said it's a hospital liquid diet that il be on starting Monday - sugar free jello , broth , sugar free Icys and a low calorie juice and lots of water he also said to buy a bag of ice from sonic and eat that when I feel hungry as it will trick my body into thinking I'm eating I hope this helped

My doc is only making me do a 10 day liquid diet, and he says it's becuase of the diet we are restricted to. We are restricted to only 3 shake choices for the liver shrink- bariatric fusion- bipro or wegmans. Bipro or wegmans brand you have to add 5g of fiber too, and bipro is perfect for people like me who can't do aspartame or sucralose. We are allowed as much sugar fee jello, fat free broth, and sugar free drinks as we want, but are limited to one cup of caffeine a day, and none the day before surgery. We are also only allowed one 1/2 cup of nonstarchy veggies daily, so I will crunch on some carrots or toss them in broth to make soup.

Sorry for the long post, just trying to help.

I do drink the premier protein shakes, which I really love the caramel ones the best. However I spoke to my bariatric coordinator and she says they are not concerned with the carb intake just stay on the recommended liquid plan. I did make homemade cream soup (low carb) and that's helped me lose a few pounds so far.
