what type of pre op diet were you on?

I was going through all my paper work from surgery looking for my preop papers but couldnt find them. I was thinking about doing that diet again because I lost 15 pounds before surgery. I know it wast stricktly liquids because my nut doesnt beleive in that, Im thinking it was low or no carbs which is what Im really working on now. Was just curius what everyone else was on, thanks Deb

During my 6mths of documentation I was on a 1200 cal diabetic type diet~lower carb, higher protein, no sugar, etc.

Thats sounds alot like what I was on but was only for one month, but then I was at 254 and lost 15 before surgery, so considered a "light weight " imagine that. I am really trying to focus on the good carbs and protein to lose the 20 pounds Ive gained. Thanks , Deb

I followed Richard Simons 1400 calorie and Weigh****chers and lost 110 lbs.  I still basically eat that way but since the RNY I eat 1600 to 1800 calories.  I can't get to my goal weight though because I had a mini RNY because I was a lightweight too.  Moral of the story is don't lose weight before surgery or you get shortchanged.
