Hi. I totally understand what you're going through. The pre-op diet was the hardest thing I ever did. I craved a cheeseburger through the whole thing!!! Like everyone else is saying its important for reducing the size of your liver. However, some things that helped me get through it was realizing what my limitations were and working around them. Set a date to start the diet and plan to have some of your favorite foods in the days before. Its a good idea to start replacing some of your meals in the days leading up to the diet - reduces carb withdrawls. And if you can't manage to stick to you nothing-but-liquids diet, then make smart decisions on what to eat. For me, dinner time was the hardest time of day for me. So I would eat a child sized portion of protein during that time until about 4 days before surgery and then went all liquids. Hope some this helps.

Welcom back!!  I was wondering where you were.

It sure is interesting to see how different each facility handles the surgery.  Regardless of the steps, we got to the same place.
