Not totally liquids.  Two high protein shakes and one meal per day.  The meal is 4-6oz of lean protein, 1/2c starch such as rice, beans or potatos, and unlimited non-starchy veggies, 1-2t fat.  Freebies such as SF jello, broth, etc.  This is for the 2 weeks before surgery.  I'll do just liquids the day before surgery.   What's your pre-op diet like?

Thanks!  Hey...since we have the same date, if you want to stay in touch let me know.  I think it would be great to swap stories/experiences/etc.  SG

Congrats to you too!  By the way...great pup photos on your page!  I live with 3 of them myself (big ones in comparison....all about 85#).  Have a great weekend.  Tuesday is an exciting day for you!

My surgery is at 2:30 on monday! I called the dr the other day to ask about being sick too. My kids and husband have been sick all week and I have been praying I don't get it. The drs office said they wouldn't do it with a fever or yucky nose but to not worry about it and they would do an exam the day of surgery to determine if I was ok to do it. Just to be safe though I have had ziacam a few times this week. Good luck monday. Wish I was going that early!

Topic: RE: Has any one cheated on their two wks diet...............
I am on day 4 of 14 of my pre-op diet: Optifast 900, up to 4 a day, plus 1 cup clear soup broth, 1/2 cupp balkan yogurt, celery/carrot sticks, and get this.... 4 halves of rinsed canned apricots.  And diet soda, of course.

Day 1 was just optifast, i didn't know i could have the rest.  It was hell.

Day 2 -3 I got some soup and yogurt, and thought wow!

Tonight I am going to add inthe celery or carrot, and try to keep it that way for the weekend.  I am leaving the apricots for last.  Partly bcz i think I will enjoy them the most, LOL.  Partly bcz I don't have them yet.

I haven't cheated yet, but I am not done yet. 

I just keep thinking "small liver is better!"
