Pre-op LIQUID DIET HELP



Recommended Posts

So, FINALLY after dealing with the stupid EXPLETIVE EXPLETIVE weight loss center in Beverly Hills its finally over and my wife and I got a surgery date for August 26th at St Josephs instead. YAY!!!! I started my pre-op liquid diet for 2 weeks!!! First day is pretty good especially since I had my last big meal last night. J My last meal of choice…. You guessed it, im in the west coast so I went with In & Out (2 burgers). I have to say it tasted the best it has ever tasted.

Question about the liquid diet? Can I have and juices, coffee or tea? I am attending a party on Saturday and I was wondering if I can even have a couple of cocktails, or is this something where I can only have Water and the liquid shakes? ?? What do you guys think?

I was told no alcohol & no carbonated or caffeinated beverages.< /p>

Acceptable Clear Liquids are: decaffeinated tea and coffee, sugar free kool aid, sugar free Jello, sugar free/clear popsicles, clear broth and bouillon, crystal light, minute maid light, diet snapple and sugar free/ low sugar Protein supplements.< /p>

Hope this helps :)

NO ALCOHOL.

The purpose of the pre-op diet is to shrink your liver.

Alcohol is directly opposed to that. I would not be able to do any parties right about now.

Parties and alcohol will always be here.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
