NEXT YEAR IN JERUSALEM

Today is day 6 of 7 day pre-op diet. I really thought this liquid diet would be super easy.....I purchased 6oz (18grams of protein) FAGE Total 0% Milkfat Yogurt to eat 3 times a day to get the 60 grams of protein required daily. Well....That worked GREAT for the first few days until I could not eat the yogurt due to sick stomach feeling. So.....that day I used no fat low sodium chicken broth mixed with Unjury Santa Fe Chile Protein Powder. Also, mixed with Unjury Chicken Soup Protein Powder for another metal. Last night and today. I have mixed the chicken broth with 2 packs black pepper, 1 teaspoon Unjury Chicken Soup Protein Powder and 1 oz of FAGE Total 0% Milkfat Yogurt. Total 20 grams of protein each meal. It taste really good and is soothing to my stomach. I hope this helps withanyone having sick stomach feeling on pre-op liquid diet. Don't be afraid to try different combinations to be successful. Everyone stay AWESOME!

Today is day 5 of 7 day pre-op liquid diet. Weight is 418 lbs. (Started at 569 lbs) I purchased FAGE Total 0% Milkfat Yogurt to eat 3 times a day to get the 60 grams of protein daily. (18grams per 6oz) Yesterday, I was unable to eat the yogurt due to feeling sickly. I instead placed Unjury Santa Fe Chile Protein Powder in chicken broth. For dinner, mixed a small amount of yogurt and Unjury Chicken Soup protein powder in chicken broth. Drinking water mixed with Crystal Light and Kroger Lite Pink Lemonade to intake minimum of 64 oz daily. Not hungry at all! Sometimes I feel strange, weak and sick stomach feeling, bad breath and gas. Surgery is Thursday! Excited to begin my new life and continue my single engine private pilot land certificate to soar above the clouds. Up...Up...and Away!

May the Holy ONE of YISRAEL BLESS you and protect you always. Blessings & Shalom Shalom

I Just finished my PRE-OP medical visit...Finished all the educational classes and jumped though all the medical clearance hoops. NOVEMBER 15 is the day! Surgery...Trying to get it for 15 years. Lost over 180 lbs on my own and was doing great. NOW I feel like I won't EVER be able to eat again! So...I have a large pizza and sub setting in front of me. WHAT AM I DOING! IT'S NOT LOGICAL! I'm a very LOGICAL thinking person. Got to get a grip!

I started at 569 pounds. I am pre-op gastric sleeve. I have spinal stenosis that has caused me to be bedridden. I live in a nursing home. Working with my dietan I have lost 100 pounds in 5 months. Just met my Jewish bariatric doctor two weeks ago. He is great! He wants me to loose more weight to be healthier for surgery. Chicken,spinach,oatmeal & yougart is my diet. Never physically hungry. Hypnosis and staying busy helps with cravings.

I saw a gizmo on one of the shopping channels but before I could write down the item number it was sold out and will not be back until June. It looked promising. You could use it in a chair or wheelchair so I could use it in bed. Must try something! Item# V34502 on QVC. Check it out. I am ordering to try. Must find relief.

I would love to know also! I am bedbound and have spinal stenosis.

Shalom Hypnosis/Meditation works wonders for me if I us it faithfully. I use "THE WAIT IS OVER" by Roberta Shipiro available on amazon. Blessings Ari

Shalom I am using hypnosis/meditation cd "THE WAIT IS OVER" by Roberta Shapiro available on amazon. As long as I use this faithfully 5-6 times daily, I have no trouble at all. It's when Im sick that I want to eat the wrong stuff. I am 57 years old and been bedridden since May of 2016 due to spinal stonosis. I lost my job, my mobility,and my home all at one time.I have been in a nursing home since May 2016 with almost no visitors or support. The only one that gives me strength is the Holy One of Israel.
