Katwooten Please tells more about it, as it sounds interesting!!

Hey ladies! I'm wondering who out there has a family to cook for and is doing or is starting a pre op diet? This is going to be hard, I don't know how this is going to work, it's going to be super hard!! My problem is not the food as much as it's the flavor!! I love big bold flavors!!! And it sucks cus I'm not aloud any spices or salt or pepper!! I can have Greek yogurt for breakfast about 1 cup, fat free soup for lunch 1 cup and 3 wasa crackers And dinner is 3 cup Lettus and 1 cup spinach, cucumber and tomatoes and 4 oz chicken Breast or pork loin and LOTS of water!!! ????

Marie Car I'm in BC!! How are things going on your end? I've started my oh Fishel three-week preop diet 1200 cal or less high-protein high vegetables low-fat and extremely little carbs, I lost 15 pounds in three weeks by just kind of following it the pre op, getting used to it lol! I had the scope down my throat two weeks ago and ended up horribly ill for a week after now I'm on pills to help with the severe acid in my stomach but Dr. said surgery was ago I go in for my preop on August 7 and then hopefully I'll get the time to be at the hospital on the 20!!!!! I'm hopping for the RNY but if for some reason my liver is to big the dr will do the sleeve!! I really want the RNY, but at the end of the day it doesn't matter I just need this to help me that going! To everyone else out there how are your preop diets going any struggles??

kmoeko - good luck!! I feel like a liquid diet would be a lot better then the way that my diets going right now that I'm on ???? I have 1200 cal a day and then I must stay under 120 g of carbs no more than 20 g of fat and I have to eat roughly 75 to 85 g of protein, I have to read every single label and see if it meets the criteria now I have to add up all the calories and decide can I have that will fit into my daily meal plan or no seriously shopping just went from roughly an hour to about six hours!!

Thank you Niki15!! I had something like this done when I was like 16 so 17 years ago and I vaguely remember it lol

At 3:15 pm I get to have a gastroscopy !! Best park is NO FOOD OR DRINKS after midnight, so here I sit at 12:10am, wondering how I will last for the hours that I'm a wake ???? I all ready had a late night snack !! Now my tummy hurts and I'm ready to get sick ???? I'm going to try and sleep ! Night ladies!! Hope everyone is doing good ????

SassyTassy, good luck I bet it will all work out, I know it's hard, but keep up the good work ! one of the reason I'm getting my surgery is Cus my A1C has been managed by diet and exercise for the past eight months!! My dr changed my pre op diet to 4 weeks ???? apparently I'm to live like a rabbit lol worst part is I have to start the pre-op diet three days before a friend of mine gets me so no wedding food for me ????!

QuilterGal fingers crossed for good news !!!

Camsmom08 I have been feeling the same way!! i've told maybe 12 people in total that I was going for the surgery and probably 8 of those people know that I have a date scheduled but I have told everybody that it's just a temporary date, until the pre-op nurse calls and give's me my times I'm not holding my breath even though there's no reason why I shouldn't be able to have the surgery that day it's still just another waiting game! That puts you on pins and needles! Pinkpeonies- good news is the hunger pains are not so bad anymore !! ???? everything is working out actually really good although I had to make a note when I go to eat something that might be a little more higher fat or have a higher carb content it does not agree with me at all my body in this week has like flushed the bad out !! Welcome prettyinPinkandGreen!!!

Congrats camsmom08!!!!! That's the same day as me!! How are you feeling about you upcoming surgery?? As for food things have gotten better over found some tricks to help lol ground flax seeds in the morning and after noon food it my life saver!! I had some rice today and feel like I'm going to get sick, so I won't try that again! Good luck on the 15 ! Let us know what happens!

Pink peonies, i only lost 30lbs, but I did great on other tests!! This place is all about making the changes, not weight loss ! So it's nice! But this waiting for the last couple appts is killing me, and oh ya the 1200 cal diet I'm on makes me feel hungry ALL THE TIME ???? I feel bad for my other half, as iv been saying lately, don't piss off the lady starving her self or come between her and HER food! I feel like I'm going to go crazy ????, how is everyone else doing with pre op diets?? Is it me or is this hard? I know it's to shrink the the liver but it still sucks!!

Thank you! Is it just me or does this feel surreal?? I'm in Canada so it works a little different out here, I've been doing the program for 7 months now! Most people take a year plus, there is one lady who is on year 6 of program! So I'm happy they passed me off to the dr ☺️

Aug 20 here!!! I have a upper GI Endoscopy on July 16 and If everything is ok then I hope to get a call for confirming my August 20 date, and with a time!!! I got a 3 week pre op diet and will I'm 6 weeks out from surgery, I've started it now to help me get on track!! I'm so happy to have found this site!!!
