Question:
What did you drink for your pre-op liquid diet?

I only have to do the liquid diet the *day* before surgury...fasting after midnight, and into the hospital @ 530am... ...What did you drink?    — Trisha M. (posted on October 7, 2009)

Basically a liquid diet is anything you can see through, and melted frozen items as well. I had to do it only one day as well, so it mostly was broth for me. tea, sugarfree drinks, soup with anything in it.

For 2 weeks pre-op I had one SlimFast-LowCarb drink for my meals, 3 "snacks" inbetween meals of apple juice diluted 1/2 with water and then unlimited amounts of any clear, sugar-free liquids (I had homemade clear chicken broth, sugar-free jello, sugar-free popsicles). I lost 30 pounds before I even had my surgery. (Had surgery Oct.5th...doing great at home already 3 days later!!) -Fawn
