I start my pre op diet tomorrow,



Recommended Posts

What does your pre-op diet consist of? Mine was one week of full liquids and 24 hours before surgery only Clear Liquids. Some people can have lean meat or carbs... I was not allowed that, but you are on a longer pre-op diet than me.

Hi, I was put on a 2-week all liquid pre-op diet. Gotta be honest...for me...it's HARD. I mean, I can do 1 meal and day with the shakes ((((no problem)))) but no food at all...based on what I'm hearing from friends and ppl from this site - I think it's more of a nutritional requirement based on the surgeon/dietician rather than a medical requirement - but that's just my opinion, i skipped med school LOL - but good luck to you, I wish you all the best!!!

I am on the 27th, as far as I know I have a one week plan that is 2 pro shakes a day and 1 meal/1 snack. I think for my own sake I will do all liquids the day before surgery to be "lighter". I see the nutritionist on the 18th, so I will double check on all this with her. Good luck!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
