What pre op diet to choose

[Paula1975]

Got my confirmation letter for pre op and op this morning and included was options for pre op diet. What one is best?

 

[Nellyphant]

I did the low cal/low carb/low fab one as I knew I wouldn't be able to do the liquid one as my blood sugar dips pre-op were horrendous. I've done meal replacement diets in the past and lasted about 2 weeks as I constantly felt dizzy. From what I've read though most people on here seem to have done the liquid one for ease.

I also did the low cal /low carb. I also did not think I would manage with no food. By filling up on leafy green veg at meal times I never felt like I was going without.

i did low cal low fat/carb. I didnt want to do the milk diet, as i really like milk and wanted lots of it post op, as its full of protein, and didnt want to put myself off by having too much.
Good luck xxx
