I spent my last week saying goodbye, or see ya later, to many of my favorite foods. I was so lucky not to have a pre-op diet.

Great that your birthday was recent - and before you surgery! Glad you splurged and enjoyed that steak! My husband bbq'd steak tonite and it is taking me forever to eat a couple of ounces.

My sister took me out for a fabulous seafood dinner two nights before my surgery - which was scheduled for my 49th bday!

There will be plenty of time to eat perfectly soon. Enjoy your last few days without sabotaging your surgery : )

I had fajitas and one too many margaritas the night before I started my preop diet. It was glorious.

Its so exciting to think of all the things that life can be. Outdoors.... camping.... hiking.... biking..... all the stuff I used to do.

We're gonna be fabulous!!!!

(congats on the "no preop diet" thing....mine sucked)

take care

Jack - go ahead and enjoy yourself before your surgery. That is one of my main regrets that I didn't do that. I didn't have to do a pre-op diet since I had a lower BMI but for some reason I think I was just tired of eating. Now I wish I could go back about 6 weeks and have a feast!

Best of luck to you.

I had some carbs which I normally do not have. Before officially starting my liquid diet I went out for a seafood dinner. Once I arrived in Mexico Dr. Aceves said to go wild and have a good last meal. I had tacos for lunch, club sandwich with fries for dinner and a piece of fruit for a snack. I portion controlled all of it. I wish I would've had a few more items but I was afraid that my liver would not shrink enough and there would be complications or that my blood sugar would spike suddenly from the higher carb foods.

      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.
