Weight Loss Method Sleeve Gastrectomy |  Pre-surgery, high protein liquid diet I am trying to endure the 2 week, high protein, liquid diet that is required by my surgeon before he performs surgery. My question is this: What is the difference in my eating my protein or whether I drink my protein. The solid protein is low-fat and similar in calories, what difference does it make?

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | I think that the difference is that it also 'cleans' out your system and prepares it for the liquids you'll get post-op. I know that I had a 6 week liquid pre-op diet AND a bowel prep, but it was no big deal because there was nothing left, lol!!! Good luck!!! You're almost there!

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | good question... I start my 1 week liquid diet (high protein shakes and broth, jello) tomorrow. I do it for 5 days, on day 6 I can't have any protein, just clear liquids. I know they want the high protein to aid healing and they probably don't want any build up in the intestines either, since they're going to fill my midsection with gas, they must figure I don't need any more bloat!!

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | i know they want your liver to shrink downs some, just for more room to work. I wasnt put on any protein diet just a clear liquid diet the day before surgery, wish I was though, you kick start the weight loss for one, and you know what you are in for when you are on liquids after surgery.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | All surgeons differ but mine had me do protien liquid for 2 weeks and he said it was to shrink the liver and make the other organs so they can move them around easily it helps them to do what they need to do with ease.
