Hello ladies, just a small note regarding the above heading LIVER REDUCING DIET -- BEFORE OPERATION!!!!!! Have any of you ladies done this before your radical hysterectomy as my Gynaecologist Consultant wants me to do this before my first exploratory operation were he is going to put a camera in the dominant portal to see if he can do the robotic operation and reach all areas without going in and finding because I am morbidly obese and have had several surgeries and scar tissue he isn't able to do the operation and putting me at risk he rather would do the camera.
before the first exploration I was given a goal which I asked for as well as a time limit to lose weight by six weeks time, as I was truly feeling that I had lost all control since my diagnosis in May 2022 I felt I needed to take back some control from the cancer and wanting a time limit stopped the subject of my next appointment being left open ended.
I was 152.9kg the consultant said as long as I get down to 148KG or 149KG then he will do the first thing ONCE I HAVE COMPLETED THE WEIGHT LOSS AND DO THE LIVER REDUCING DIET, incidentally i am now down to 145 kg so I have about three weeks left to lose more so maybe he will do the main operation instead.
Below is the link to the diet.
