pre op diet

we were also given a booklet at the nutrition class....2 diets to follow: one is all liquid for 10 days b4 surgery..purpose is to deplete your stored glycogen which will make surgery easier (according to booklet). The other is for those that are diabetic and it is a 1200 cal diet based onthe food exchanges. I'm scared of getting too hungry on the liquid diet, so I started the diabetic diet this am ( which our nutritionist said we could do if we couldn't follow the liquid diet). On it tho, u have to do all liquids 3 days b4 surgery. debi
