Ok who is currently on a preop diet?!
RobingAlaska replied to Katrinakit's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Howdy! I started the liver shrinking diet on January 4. It consisted of one Meal Replacement and two meals that were Protein low fat and a cup of veggies. My weight was 291 pounds on 4 January. On March 20 went to two mill replacements, which was a Protein shake with up to 27 g of protein. On April 14 I went to an all clear liquid diet and I am now on day 10. My surgery is Wednesday. (RNY). I am down to 250. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Nice job crazy! Good luck cladd! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
Hi Pinkguppy, surgery is a huge committment. Once you make the decision you will probably have to go on a liver shrink diet, to get you ready. I have found once you stick to it for about a week, the cravings go away. Hope that helps. I made my decision and my surgery (RNY) on Wednesday. Good luck!

Good Morning! 5:24 AM here in Chugiak Alaska, I woke up from a dream where I had accidentally eaten something.! I panicked and then realized it was just a dream. Grief! Day 7 of the liquid diet I haven't lost any weight in three days, seems weird to me. How are you guys doing with weight loss? I lost 35 pounds on the liver shrinking diet. Beginning wait 291, current weight 254. I started the liver shrinking diet January 4. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Thank you!! Feel the same way. I have lost and gained 100 pounds three times. I've lost 35 pounds on the liver shrinking diet and also said to myself, wow, why don't I just stay on this? But then quickly realized that I have been able to demonstrate successful weight loss it is the sustaining in maintaining that I completely suck at. At 57, I feel I have to do something that is permanent. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

We should stay in touch, the three of us I live in Alaska but having the surgery in San Diego. I'm on day six of the liquid diet, I think yesterday was the toughest day. Not sure how old you guys are, but I'm 57 and vacillate back-and-forth on is this really the thing to do??? My insurance doesn't cover the surgery, so I'm a cash patient, and have already had to pay 50%, as well as two weeks of lodging in San Diego, so I guess I'm already approaching the deep end of the pool guess I better get up and stop worrying so much and just do it!!!!
