How long were you all kept on the liquid diet after WLS?
Lucky for Dr C's patients, we don't have to do a liquid diet and we don't have to cleanse our insides out prior to surgery. I am not sure if he just requires it in specific cases or not nowadasy. I felt much stronger going into surgery knowing that I wasn't depleted with go light...it always makes me weak. I was very thrilled about not having to do a liquid diet.

I give you so much credit. I don't know if I could have made it past the first 2 days.

Ooops....I misread the post. I see you are talking about the diet afterward.....I didn't have a liquid diet very long...hummm????
