How Much Weight Did You Lose On Your Pre Gastric Sleeve Surgery Diet?



Recommended Posts

Ahh, sir that is. We are few here but we are here. :P

I do get a hunger feeling in the evenings but have made a strict rule to never eat past 7 pm. Other than that the sleve has really curbed my appetite.

What does your pre op diets consist of? My doctor said I only have to do Clear Liquids the day before surgery, but I would like to do a pre op diet to lose 20 pounds before surgery. I'm planning on having it done sometime in January.

My Doc's normal routine is 1 to 2 weeks of a shake for Breakfast and lunch. Then a small dinner of maybe fish or salad followed by 2 days clear Fluid before surgery. I ended up with 3 weeks on the preop and stayed highly disciplined at 3 shakes per day period. I drank 1 to 2 gals of Water or crystal lite daily to keep my stomach full. This is but just one way the Docs go about the diet, each is different.

Good luck to you Ready! My date is 10/11/12-the time is going slow and fast at the same time, if you know what I mean! I wish I could do 3 shakes a day-great discipline! I'm hungry on the 2 shakes and 1 lean and green plus 2 fruits (apple,pear citrus only-berries, sparingly)! I'm thinking of only having fish or eggs with lots of veggies until my liquid Pre-op diet (starting on the 5th). I've lost 14 pounds since my Nutrition. Appt. 8/15/12, but I have a lot to lose and I'm anxious to get started! I'm hoping to go down 2 sizes for Thanksgiving. I already bought a cute dress to wear 2 sizes smaller than I am right now as incentive! Keep us posted on your surgery and recovery!

My preop diet was only 1 day so I don't think there was much of a loss.

I did set a goal of 47-lbs loss during the 6 month supervised diet plan and was proud of myself for surpassing it and losing 63.

Good luck.

      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.
