13 days out from my surgery, have had ups and downs with the biggest challenge be 1) energy and 2) hunger at the end of the day. I've fixed the hunger by making sure I'm sticking to high protein liquids. Here are some tips and tricks I've learned to help me keep moving forward:
Food tips:
Perfect treat: Pre-mixed Premier Protein, Vanilla. Warm in microwave then sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg. Such a treat, and fulfilling!
Making sure to get my protein drinks in late in the day so I don't have that late night hunger.
I've been using Gatorade Zero to fill in between meals, since plain water is hard on my stomach.
I tried a recipe from a cookbook, but it really grossed me out - using plain greek yogurt, mixing it up with my chocolate whey protein. Gagged! That memory has kept me going on liquids alone.
Use bone broth as a meal, adding my own salt and spices, nice an warm, and comforting.
Exercise Tips:
Set little goals, and then if you can keep going, keep going. If you need to take a break in between, take a small break.
Listen to your body, and if you need to rest, or take a break in between, do it!
For me, I started with walking laps around my pool / patio at night, and use my FitBit to keep me motivated. One day I had 10 laps, then I challenged myself to do 5 more, then 5 more, etc. Started at 5,000 steps then challenged myself each day until I got up to 12,000. However, if I didn't have the energy, I listened to my body and didn't push it.
After I was comfortable walking, I started on my Bowflex Max 5 - not at the interval training level, but just at my own pace. First days were hard. I skipped two days, but then hopped up on it again and found I was able to go several additional minutes without needing a break. Just like any exercise, keep your water or Gatorade Zero or other non-calorie hydration close by, small sips are all you need.
Setbacks:
Some days the hunger was really strong - I found myself tasting Kosher salt & spices in between meals, which kicked any feelings of being deprived to the curb. (I don't know if this is allowed, or healthy - but just a taste did the trick). I've gotten over those cravings from the first week.
After losing 12 pounds the first week, I stalled for about 2 days. I was discouraged, but kept moving and the weight loss kicked in quickly. I am now down 16 pounds since 12 days since my surgery.
Keeping my energy levels high enough to put in the walking and/or Bowflex. I have to push myself at times, but I do it and feel better after knowing that I am increasing my metabolism and strength with each cycle. I also let myself rest when I need.
Hope sharing this helps as you approach your post-surgery healing and journey.

Day 4 pre op. I've got my headache back again but don't feel as washed out as the past few days. I'm keeping up on my chewable multi vitamins which I think is really helping my skin and focus. I am only having the three optifast meals a day (shakes or puddings) and not getting in the steamed veges as I'm simply too tired. I might have to start having them at lunchtime I think, I know there is a reason I have to have them.
10 days until surgery. I'm so excited about it now, not really nervous. I am reading so many of the posts on this forum, it's been great.
For those starting out on the pre op liquid diet, the only advice I can give on day four is to drink water. Try and keep yourself distracted during the first couple of days. DON'T go grocery shopping.....that just highlighted to me bad habits that I had got in to. Online shopping and delivery from now on.
I've got myself a diary to write journal entries in leading up to and after the surgery.
It's Christmas Eve here, so merry christmas to you all, and I'll see you on the other side of the Jolly Fat Fellows day!
