Hi, im going for a consult on memorial day to a doctor in Frankfurt Germany. I have been told he does not give a food list. I have been looking on the boards, and have decided i should stay on clear liquids for 1 week. Then try "full liquids" for a week then move onto mushies. (pace all depends on how i feel) If your doctor gave you a food list/plan would you mind sharing with me? Oh and your own personal preferences..I will look at everything and decide what is best for me. I want to put together a list and get ready so after the consult if my insurance approves i will have what i need for surgery. Also i figured i should do a post op diet of 2 shakes a day and small meal for 2 weeks heading into surgery to make sure that my liver shrinks enough. Any suggestions are welcome, like i said i will take everything in consideration. Thank you

I am confused, has he not specifically told you what type of diet you should follow post-op? He may not necessarily provide a food list, but he should tell you liquids for so long, then mushies, etc.

As far as ideas for the different stages, there a tons of ideas here:
