To all of you on your liquid preop diet

Take it from my experience, take a stool softner by the directions because in those two weeks all that protein gathers and whatever matter of cheats gathers and binds in your colon and when it passes, it's like trying to pass a baseball through a straw, get it!?   Maybe all that low carb high protein no sugar no fat diet won't affect you like this.... As far as me, 30 painful minutes later - Elvis has left the building!!! BobM.

Bob,

Sounds rough...Sorry, I don't know. Anyone here with specialized knowledge on the outer limits of that part of the anatomy? I imagine though, that now you've taken action, nature will take it's course.

Look at it as an additional 10 lbs lost pre-op!

The time is near, Bob.

Hey Bob.... when you are all clear, the important thing is to stay regular.....for mee...a couple cups of coffee first thing on an empty stomach...and kaboom....i'm done.... I look forward to your post one Wednesday Russ

Hey Russ,

How's things? Thanks for helping me out. I'm the same, coffee on an empty stomach. Whey protein or BCAA's almost the same as coffee when they're taken on an empty stomach.

Russ, Dave, Yep! Same here, coffee on an empty stomach works every morning. I'm more regular now than I've ever been my entire life. I'll stop there before I enter the TMI zone, as if I haven't already. Ron

Well, next week is the big day isn't it.   Hang on!  We are holding a seat for you on the bench. Best of Luck. Mike
