3-Week Pre-Op Diet

Jul 17, 2010

Both the NUTs at Dr. A's office are excellent. I sent Nancy Lum a note yesterday about specifics of the pre-op diet. She responded to my note immediately and gave me a call this morning to make certain that I understood her response.

Here is how it works:

4 Protein Shakes a day  -OR- 2 shakes + a moderate meal consisting of ONLY proteins and vegetables ... PLUSall the 0 cal drinks I can stand :-)

Nancy's thing is that a person would starve to death without the option of some solid food. I completely agree :-) She is highly experienced and has an amazing perspective on bariatric surgery and a keen understanding of bariatric patients.
