Pre-Op Full Liquid Day 4



Recommended Posts

As May 15 approaches I'm getting so freakin nervous. I just hope that I loose weight after all of this. No medical problems yet and don't want any.

Just keep focused on the goal! I've been at my modified pre-op diet for 4 days now. My surgeon told me one wasn't necessary since my BMI was borderline but I opted to do the diet anyway but add in a salad for dinner. It's really helping me sort out real hunger from head hunger and thirst. It's amazing what just drinking some Water or Powerade Zero can do! I've lost over 9 lbs since Monday...you can do this too!! Good luck with your surgery, mine is May 18th.

My doctor has the same sort of "deal". I can eat up to 250 calories in low carb veggies with no dressing or anything like that.... just maybe a little lemon juice or season/herb, in addition to the liquids. Of course, I would have to eat a 5 gallon bucket of lettuce, cucumbers, etc. to get 250 calories!! hahahahhaha

Good luck on the pre-op diet!! We are going to make it!!!! B)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
