Liquid diet

 Hi Everyone,  I am new to this site. I have been battling my weight issue as long as I can remember. I finally feel like I am starting to get somewhere with it. I am having gastric bypass soon. I am on the wait list.  Ive been told I have to do a 3 week liquid diet per surgery. I am just looking for any info that anyone can give me that has had to do the liquid diet. What I can and cannot have?  
Thanks

It seems each person gets slightly different instructions and I have no idea of the criteria for different versions of the prep diet.

Your best bet is to call or email your dietitian and ask for exact instructions. You want to be in the best possible shape for your surgery.

Congratulations for being so close - I hope your date comes soon!

MY pre-op liquid diet consisted of 4 ENSURE drinks a day - 3 cups of milk and 4 cups of water, coffee, crystal light and/or clear broth .. so a total of 7 cups of fluids plus the 4 Ensure's a day.

Truthfully, the first week was brutal .. by the end of 3 weeks it was a breeze.
