I start my preop diet on the 22nd... I know each doctor is different, what is some of your preop diets like? I can have 2 1/2 cups of steamed veggies... 2 fruits... 2 Protein shakes... 2 8 oz glasses of skim milk... I see some can have chicken broth or tomatoe soup....

My doc wants only liquids, and focus on low-fat and low-carb, high-protein. He allows broth and clear Soups, as long as they're just liquid, so no noodles in chicken noodle :angry:

I'm on day number 3! Its been a rough two day' date=' I've drinking the Akins shake those are good. Any advice of other thing that will fill me up?[/quote']

My only advice is to work on the timing of intake. I found that if I started too early in the morning I was hungry all day. Or if I waited until after 11:00 to have mid morning shake I was less hungry.

It's a really important phase so hang in there.

Today is my first day of pre-op. Surgery is the 22nd. I did fine today other than I'm starting to get hungry now and the shake isn't holding me very long. Any suggestions???

      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.
