Which preop diet did you have to follow?

[morph]

I am interested to see that different people have different diets recommended.

I have to go down the low fat, low carb route before my band on 15th March:

1 weetabix with skimmed milk for breakfast

half a chicken breast and salad for lunch

chicken again for dinner with 2 tablespoons veg, no potatoes.

Obviously the chicken can be replaced with other low fat proteins.

So what did you have?

3 pints of semi skimmed milk and 2 yoghurts per day for 10 days for me. Yours sounds very tasty compared to somexx

Trust me, 2 weeks of tomato cup-a-soup can send you to a dark place lol.

1 multi vitamin
Sugar free jelly

I did the milk diet - 4 pints s/s milk and 2 pints other liquid plus a salty drink and option of 3 stick chewing gum and a sugar free jelly. Must admit it helped get me in the right mindframe of the op in terms of not having food in my mouth. Worked too - lost 12 pounds!

I was advised to do the low carb low fat diet (similar to the one on the BOSPA site) because of diabetes. The first week was a doddle but the second week was a little bit more difficult. I still managed to lose 10lb though. Mxx
