Am I the only one?

Am I the only one who doesn't have to do only liquids for the two week pre-op diet? I do have strict guide lines of what I can eat  and how many calories and carbs but it doesn't have to be liquids. Anyone else on a pre-op diet that includes solid food?

Yes!!!  I was totally no carbs and a limited list of lean meats and veggies...but specifically no protein shakes.  Today is all clear, non-caloric liquids...surgery in 24 hours!!

Mine was very low carb, high fat and green leafy veg.. My surgeon said he wanted my liver shrunk. He was not worried about mr losing weigh before, even though I did lost 10lbs. After surgery he said my liver looked great. Also no fruit. Clear liquids day before.

I only need to be on liquids the two days before surgery.

It's good to know that there are others that didn't only liquids. My diet for breakfast I get one protein choice, one dairy choice and one fruit choice. Lunch and dinner  I get one protein choice and two veggie choices.  I have a specific last I can choose from and it's between 700-800 calories and 40 -50 carbs.

2 weeks with 2 shakes and one 300 cal tv diner I could add a 1/2 apple if I get a headache and clear liquids for the last 2 days

Wow. .that is strange how some don't need liquid diet and some do. I am on day 6 of my liquid diet and it is hard. My surgery is Nov.5th.

Mine was lowv carb until the day before surgery. Then I had to do broth and water. My hat goes off to those who pull off that 2 weeks on liquid only.
