1 week INTO Pre-Surgery Diet

[Melody33 0]

Good Morning!

I have been Tricare approved and am into my first week of the Pre-Surgery Diet!

Couple of questions?

1. I have seen so many different 2 week pre-surgery diets.

Is it ok to eat a slice of chicken or Turkey?

2. I am drinking the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein drinks. I have tried chocolate and strawberry. So far so good.

I am also eating oatmeal, applesauce, pudding, Jello and fresh veggies.

Is it ok to eat the fresh veggies such as carrots and celerly?

I could use any suggestions and support!

Super nervous!

You need to consult your surgeon or nutritionist as everyone's pre-op diet seems to be different. I was limited to 3 Protein Drinks a day, unlimited broth, unlimited sugar-free Jello and popsicles, 3 cups of juice per day, and as much sugar-free drinks as I would like. I could not have anything SOLID at all.

I agree you should ask your doc. I am on the 8th day of my liquid diet and I to am allowed only Clear Liquids and sf items like popsicles, crystal light and Protein shakes..in addition to clear broths all that i want. I am having some serious headaches due to not eating so i may have a little turkey or someting high in protein, but nothing with sugar and i do stick to my liquids during the day..I must say that I don't do this everyday, but i have found that just a little bit of something helps...stay strong and we all need the support...I know i do.
