I have absolutely no energy on this pre op diet. I can only have Protein Shakes, Water, Zero Calorie/Zero Sugar drinks/enhancers, Sugar Free Popsicles and Jello, and Low Sodium broths. I am meeting my daily protein goal, my daily water intake, and taking all my vitamins. Somebody mentioned iron and I called my surgeon's office and they said there is no need to take iron right now and that they will check those levels 3 months out. I'm just worried because my iron runs low and I am exhausted, dizzy, and weak all the time. I have 5 more days to go on this clear liquid diet. My hunger really isn't even an issue, the water and protein keep me at bay (most) of the time. Does anybody have any other suggestions? Thank you!

I'm one week post op today and I'm so tired of clears and I can't seem to tolerate isopure to get in my protein. I'm ready for some protein shakes. Just curious as to when everyone else made the switch from Strict Clear to Full Liquids?

Good afternoon. As of today April 9, 2013, I have been cleared for surgery. I'm waiting now for my doctor to call with my surgery date. I have to do 2 weeks of Optifast before my surgery but I'm ready for it. I'll keep you posted on the actual date. Anyone else have band to sleeve revision? I see a lot of virgin sleeves, but I want to know what it's like to have the band removed and sleeved at the same time. DEB
