leatha_g 4 Posted July 26, 2006 What were your doctors orders?? Are you supposed to be on liquids the first few days/weeks? Most US docs say full liquids, then mushies. Do you mean pre-op (before surgery) or post-op (after surgery)?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CLOE 0 Posted July 26, 2006 Kim, Ya, I think you should call TLBC tommorow and get them to be very specific for you. You should know exactly what to eat and drink. I don't no about diet pop, but I know Yoda didn't like cottage cheese either and she just ate yogurt. I can't help you, I was on opti-fast shakes for 3 weeks for Dr. Cobourn. Different Dr. different diet, that's why you should call them personally and find out.:huggie: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yoda 0 Posted July 26, 2006 Yes, call them if you are unsure, Kim. I'd recommend staying away from pop (even diet)...just stick to your crystal light. Also, make sure you don't eat it fast...take your time...let it fill you up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

loriely 0 Posted July 27, 2006 tblc told me if i was really hungry i could have a chicken breast (spices only) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leila 0 Posted July 27, 2006 Try blending it half and half in a blender with the yogurt until really smooth and then freezing it, really, give it a shot. Okay, confession time, I sneak into the bodybuilding forums and read, and those guys are obsessed with cottage cheese, as it's near thing to a perfect Protein, and they eat tonnes of the low fat stuff. So here's a link to threads they have discussing how to make it palatable for people who don't like it. A lot of these you can't use because of the things they add to it, but some, like adding cinnamon and splenda, you could try, so read through and maybe you'll get some ideas. http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=673868 http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showpost.php?p=9484921&postcount=10 You could ask your surgeons office if some of the things they add to it, like sugar free Jello, would be okay for you to add to it too. Might as well play with the stuff and find out, since you've already bought it! XO Leila geeze louise..... ( i don't know a louise) this is my first pre op day.... I can';t eat this stuff..

Yoda 0 Posted July 27, 2006 Be careful tho Kim...do what TLBC tells you...NOT what other ppl's docs told THEM. I agree with Loriely...TLBC also told me I could have chicken breast (nothing on it other than spices)...for the first week of my 2 week pre-op diet. Check with Nisrine.

Teresita 0 Posted July 27, 2006 You are right Yoda, those are just ideas that will still keep the liver down. Check with your doctor first Kim and good luck. Does anyone know the way back to MD. I don't have a passport..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimmason 0 Posted July 27, 2006 hi there folks.Okay i called tlbc today and nisreen was buys so I spoke with carol.....lots of answers excpet the chicken one. Anyway I bought yogurt....12 of them since they were on for 1.88 which is good. So I just ate cottage cheese, ,it is still in there and not churning my guts yet. Hell ya, then I went to chapters after watching oprah looking for a sex book,, i have to make up for lost time when i get this done! So so far no chicken breast and I am taking this day by day, God I am so sorry Ifeel like I am whining my way through this . and yes carol says I can have diet pepsi. Funny thing is when I came on here ages ago, my relationship was in the crapper and after three days of fighting, pretty much I wanted to know if he's in it or not , cuz i have spent the last year and a half focsued on him, that now it is my turn and I am focusing on me! So somethings changed cuz I have now had sex three times and the last time was ...um who knows and we seem to be okay so I can't explain it,,, umm i guess this should be in the adult content lol god i am hungry ,,,,,,,!!!
