My surgery isnt until mid June, but when I enquired about a pre-op diet, they just said to lower my carbs a week or 2 before the day. (Getting surgery Europe). My BMI is around 36 if that has any bearing?

Thank You

My pre-op diet was to limit eating to 1500 calories/day and restrict fats for 2 weeks before surgery.

My pre-OP diet is 48 hours of liquid only

My program requires a 2 week liquid diet before the surgery. The reasons are to shrink the liver a bit before surgery, to get you into ketosis before the surgery, and to get you in the right mindset heading in to surgery. I don't have a strict number of shakes to have each day, just between 4-6 as I'd like. I've been preparing myself by having 1-2 shakes a day so far, so it won't seem so jarring to switch to the liquid diet. I still think I'll be a bit cranky though [emoji12]

On my 2 wk liquid diet, I'm allowed 4 to 6 cups of green leafy vegetables plus 3 to 4 protein shakes. I chose Jay Robb as it is low in carbs and sugar and no artificial ingredients I can also have sugar free popsicles and jello. I m on my 2nd day and doing well
