Pre-Op Diet For 2 Weeks, What Kind Of Things Are You Eating/drinking?



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled with Dr Kelly in MX on May 10th. I was told I just need to 'eat healthy' for 2 weeks prior, then do the modified liquid diet 3 days pre-op.

I am wondering what others are eating or drinking for the 2 weeks prior though?

I am having a Protein Shake for Breakfast, Protein shake or salad or something else healthy for lunch, then healthy dinner or protein shake for dinner.

But I am so hungry in between!

Today I had protein shake, greek yoghurt, babybel cheese, big plate of caesar salad & I am hungry still!

I am so looking forward to being sleeved as I won't be as hungry then & won't eat/drink as much. This is rough!

I was only allowed - 2-3 Protein Shakes a day plus a lean Protein and salad at dinner. days 14 -7 . day 7 - 3 only protein shakes up to 4 a day. sf Jello or sf popsciles is wanted. this is day one of only protein shakes. i am still having my Decaf coffe with skim milk. day 3,2,1 broth only - but my coordinator said any broth is ok. so heat up minestone Soups and just strain the broth or any other Soup you like and strain,. she mentioned some good teas also. if you want more let me know. I am sleeved 5/7 with Dr Garcia

I like the one I was given. I like it on paper anyway..LOL..my NUT gave me a list hour by hour. I will basically be keeping my stomach full on Protein Shakes and liquids every hr all day..till 8 pm...I sure hope it helps curb the hunger!

      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.
