Pre-op diet - confused

[westiedog]

My confused. My band op is scheduled for 10/02/15. Th consultant said at my appointment due to my bmi I would need to follow a pre op diet limited to 1000 calories per day for 7 days prior to my op (he said I was not limited to any particular foods as long as I did not exceed the calories). The dietician rang today and said I had to follow the liquid only diet 7 days prior to my op. I questioned this but she was adamant she is correct.

Any advice please ?

I had RNY on 12/18/14. I was instructed to follow a liquid diet 7 days prior to surgery. Basically, sugar-free jello, broth, crystal light etc.

But each Surgeon's office is different.

you need to check with your provider and get their confirmation as each is different and often depending upon the individual too
