I'm on day 10 of my Pre op liquid diet and am having near constan****ery diarrhea. Is that normal? I know I've read the "liquid in, liquid out" adage on here before, but didn't expect it to be this bad!!! Anything that will help?

It is normal.  Just make sure you keep drinking so you don't dehydrate.  Once you start eating more solids you may have the opposite problem!

It might also be your brand of protein shake.  It will still be liquid, but it shouldn't really be constant...

Normal and enjoy it while it lasts. In a couple weeks you will be posting here asking why you haven't gone in 3 days.

I'm going through the same thing right now. Ugh..espcially when I'm at work.  I nibbled a tiny piece of cheddar and that stopped it.  Now I haven't had any movement in days so I'm not sure which is worse. good luck!
