Hard Time In The Pre-Op Diet



Recommended Posts

Ok... I am having a terrible time. I have even cheated. And I feel terrible about it. I just keep getting so hungry. Hungier than I've ever felt in my life. I get terrible headaches' date=' I get sick to my stomach, shaky. And everything I can eat is cold. After eating cold foods/liquids all day, all I can think about is something warm and comforting. I'm so embarrassed. :([/quote']

Don't beat yourself up. Get back on your program again. You can do this! You deserve it. Make a cup of herbal tea. Preferably a relaxing one. Hang in there. I said a prayer for you.

Thanks guys. I'm glad I'm not alone... I'm afraid that it shows that I'm not 'commited' or something to that effect. That's not it... I'm just so hungry!! I don't have any problem during the work day. I eat what I brought, and I stay busy so it's fine. But I get home at the end of the day, I start paying attention to how hungry I feel. And I don't have anything to distract me. And then all of a sudden that's all I can think about/feel/focus on. And that's how I've ended up cheating. I really appreciate the prayers. I could sure use them!

Day four of pre-op liquid diet.....I cheated....had a piece of veggie cold pizza...the kind that is made with croissant n cream cheese. I've got such a headache and can't drink thiese shakes with this smell. I've ordered some nectar ones and some protien drink shots.....I feel as if I'm on the edge of the slippery slope and getting ready to fall.

      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?

      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.
