Topic: RE: October 7th
I guess the purpose of the protein liquid diet pre-surgery is to reduce the amount of fat around the liver and make it easier for the surgeon to find the stomach--for the lapband surgery anyway. The nurse told me that the doctor does not demand this to be done, but if they have trouble finding their way around inside, they will stop the surgery and you would have to do the procedure over again after you lose some more weight. It is not a requirement of my insurance either. I am just going to do it, because I don't think I could go through all of this again, if they can't see inside my belly.
