Pre-Op diet in 2 days any pointers



Recommended Posts

I start my pre-op diet on the 3rd (surgery is March 17th) just looking for any pointers on making the transition, I have pretty much ate everything on my "food bucket list" so I am extremely exited to get it started. Any advice is appreciated, thanks.

not sure which pre-op diet you are on, but be prepared to possibly feel a little spacey and/or on the edge about the 3rd-4th day. JUst be patient with yourself, schedule yourself lightly, and make time for bubble baths, showers, or reading some books or seeing movies at home. You will be surprised how after that 4th day or so your body adjusts. DRINK Protein Drinks you like the taste of.

Today is my 22nd and final day of pre-op. I haven't had solid food in over 3 weeks and am not hungry.

The secret is keeping a positive attitude and focusing on the result. Try not to think about what you aren't eating. Any hunger you feel is all in your head. Fight it, it's only 2 weeks.

Good luck!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
