    How long before surgery do you start the pre-op diet? It consist of liquids and protein shakes correct? Will they give you the information to follow this diet beforehand?

    It's depends on your weight and BMI. larger BMI need longer pre op to shrink the liver.

    Starts with liquid and protein shakes and end with just clear liquids (Tea, broth, Ect)

    I had a low BMI and was on a 3 day pre op of just Clear liquids.

    Yes.. The give you all the information before.. Dr. A. and Weight loss agents are really good at giving you all the information.

    Did anybody get their gallbladder removed at the same time as a precaution? If not any issues?
