Hun dont worry as you do the pre-op diet whatever one you do... your liver can start to shrink withing 3 days... so a week is fine... everbody does it for different lengths etc..it depends on the surgeon, your BMI, so dont worry you will be fine... just stick to what you have been told xx

the bovril is because there isn't enough salk in the milk diet. (according to my dietitian!!)

When I had my band (1999) I did not have to do anything apart from usual 8 hrs pre op fast - how things change with time,and as the teams learn more and improve things. Good luck xx
