Surgery Scheduled for March



Recommended Posts

Well I did well today in the end, this is my day one. I am allowed 5 Protein Shakes, plus 2 cups of raw or steamed veggies. I made it through with 4 shakes and a big bowl of salad, which was yummy! I had 2 tbsp of fat free Italian dressing on it. I'm hungry now but I will just have a cup of milk before bed. I CAN do this for the next 10 days!

The hardest part was feeding my 21 month old who is a very picky eater, he likes to watch me eat something before he does. I pretended!

Awwww, I haven't seen many that have to do preop like me. I have to o a 21 day total liquid diet. No food at all. Just Protein shakes, naked juice, crystal light, chicken broth. I can have sf Jello and Popsicles, and no sugar added fudgesicles. That's pretty much it.

I was supposed to do a 14 pre op diet but I had short notice of the surgery date so I'm just doing 10 days.

I just 're read my notes on what I can have, sugar free Jello and popsicle s are allowed! As well as putting the veggies in a broth to make Soup.< /p>

Hey, I'm on day 4 of my liquid diet too and I feel great! I got a sudden burst of energy from somewhere and have been dancing around the house all day. I had a minor headache day 2, you might wanna have some sf Jello and make sure you are getting 64oz of Water or crystal light.

I'm on day 3, and I feel much less bloated, been peeing a lot. I swear I've lost weight already! I forgot to weigh myself on day one, so I don't know if I did.

Pre op testing on Tuesday.

I'm so excited about this whole thing now. Except the anesthesia part!

How's everyone feeling?

WOW Newbeebee! You are the only one I have encountered who's diet is worse than mine. I can have apple and orange juice, sf Popsicles, no sugar added fudgesicles, sf Jello and all low sodium broth Soups which really help. However, I have to go 21 days because of my BMI instead of 14. So I guess we all have something. It's going to be worth it. Hang in there, we can do this.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
