Day 2 Pre-op Diet

[jguttery 0]

Okay Y'all,

I'm on day two of my pre-op. I guess I am a little lucky, because my doctor on me doing, Protein Shakes, lean meats and starchless carbs. Feelin' a lack of energy... but overall feeling good. Made a awesome Protein Drink today. 1 scoop Protein Powder, 8 ounces of almond milk, and 1 teaspoon of whipped Peanut Butter, then blend till smooth. It's about 22g of Protein and 185 calories

I am scheduled for 11/1.... Doc has me on a 2 week pre-op diet but I started it two days early. Today was better that yesterday as far as hunger pains go and the 8 cups of Water went easier today. Best of luck on surgery day to you!!!

I look forward to my Protein shakes!!!! However, If I had been a a liquid only pre-op I know they wouldn't be so appealing. Day 5 for me..... and 3 pounds gone since Saturday. Been fairly easy so far and I haven't gave into temptation. Even when a co-worker order pizza and offered up a slice. pizza has always been one of my quantity foods. One thing I like about my pre-op is that it's about Portion Control and better food choices, which I hope will set me up for healthier eating post surgery. Congrats on begining your journey!!!!
