Recommended Posts

1 day after mine! I am on a Monday and yours is on a Tuesday. How long did your doc. say you will be in the hospital? Mine told me 4 days. Have you started sampling Protein shakes. I have tried two. Yucky, so far. I am glad I have someone very close to my date now to chat with. :D

Mine is the 29th. Dr. Aceves.

I will be in the hospital until Friday. I have not tried any Protein Shakes yet. What have you tried so far? How much of a pre op diet do you have to do? My doc said one week but I may start the 1st of November just to be safe. I am so excited and nervous!!!!

I just got some samples of Protein shakes for my nutritionist. I tried Nectar- Fuzzy Navel- Yuk, but it did taste better if you get it cold first. This morning I tried nectar chocolate Truffle, not too bad but it has splenda in it. Splenda upset my stomach. I will be on a two week pre-op diet. I will start that on Nov. 14th. I am like you.... so excited and nervous. Lots of Anxiety.

      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.
