Recommended Posts

Hi! this is my first try at this forum,seems pretty interesting. Can someone let me know whether the liquid stage consists of just clear broths or can i have pureed vege Soups? I havn't been told about the Protein intakes-or is it just an american thing? I'm a bandster of 2 days and can't wait to see my transformation.44kgs to lose!!!!!!:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

You need to have your DOCTOR answer this question as to what he/she considers to be liquid/mushie etc. Then follow the doctor's instruction to the letter.

Docs can vary, and if you want to get the most of your expeuience with yours, you should have this info from them... in detail. If you have had surgery, and don't have any of this info (in detail), then I am concerned that your doc did not do that, and is not providing you with all you need. remember, the surgical part of this is only a fraction, and you and your band doc need to know and work on all of this together.

Call the doc.

BTW, welcome to bandland!!! This is a great journey!

      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.
