Topic: RE: Anybody have to go on a liquid diet before surgery?
It's ok Heather, deep breaths LOL.
Not everyone has to go on one. My doctor didn't say I had to either so don't freak out. I just thought it might be a good idea to help me lose a bit of weight.
Shakes are all different. I suggest you start trying some now so you'll have what you like come surgery time. I found buying samples when possible is a good idea so you can taste different flavours and brands.
Hope you feel better.

Topic: RE: Anybody have to go on a liquid diet before surgery?
Well I am worried. I dont have pre-op untill Nov. 11th for sugery on the 18th. No one has said that I remember; anything about a liquid diet prior. Im going to call tomorrow because Lord knows I will freak if this gets pushed back. Sounds hard. How do the protein shakes taste. I worry about that as well. I tried the Slim Fast a long time ago and got so sick. YUCK! OK breathe... Im having a very anxious night tonight.

I know EXACTLY what you mean! I'm 3 weeks from my surgery date and I am even dreaming about it. I'm nervous, excited, anxious.. it's a range of emotions. Next week I start my pre-op diet, so hopefully it will go be quickly.
