1St Day Of Liquid Diet



Recommended Posts

I am set to be sleeved on the 27th. Today is D-Day...and so far it hasn't been that bad. Right now I am using Baratric Advantage until my shipment from powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury arrives.

The only complaint I have is....the shakes..they make me feel nauseous. That's good....I don't want to eat anything, bad cause I don't like feeling like I am going to hurl.

I think I might switch to a slimfast shake at least once a day.

I started today too! I was actually kinda surprised at the taste, I was expecting a lot worse!...but I can see it's going to be a bit of a challange...I'm set for August 2nd so I've 3 weeks of shakes and bars....I'm also allowed some vegetables - bell peppers, cucumbers, carrots....that should add some variety and something crunchy :)

Best of luck!

I'm not allowed anything but the shakes. sugar free popicles, crystal light and Jello. But that's ok...I am looking forward to the end result.

I'm on day 4 of my liquid diet and it's been tough!!! I can have some Soups but they have to be strained. Carnation instant Breakfast is on my list so I've been drinking it. I'm scheduled to be sleeved on July 24th an I can't wait!!!

Just found this app last week And I'm so happy to have found it!!! Glad to have people to talk to!

I'm scheduled for the 27th too! Yay! I start my liquid diet first thing in the am. What flavor of the Bariatric Advantage did you get? I picked banana since I'm allowed to add fresh fruit to the shakes.< /p>

Ok, so my first post on the day I started, I said it wasn't that bad....about 30 minutes after that post I had a MASSIVE headache that lasted almost 2 days....I'm sure my body was in SHOCK. I did not prepare before starting, I hit it cold turkey....holy hell, not a good idea. But now I'm in day 4 and it's the first really good day that I haven't cheated (I've only cheated with real food protein) and gotten through just on shakes and bars and carrots, which I'm allowed. I'm feeling good. Your body just needs time to adjust to the huge change! Hope everyone else is getting through!

I started my preop diet today. I can have veggies and my shakes. I am glad I started a month prepping. I gave up cokes, coffee and for Bfast and lunch I have been doing salads with my Protein. I hope I don't get headaches :(

I am 5 days post-op and things are going very well. I was on the liquid diet for two weeks before surgery but I found the shakes to be too sweet. I'm not really in to sweets, it the salty carbs that got me. I was allowed lettuce, carrots, celery and bell peppers to make a salad but by the fourth day I was bored and got creative by adding herbs like cilantro, basil and dill to my salads. By the second week I was craving something warm and eventually began steaming spinach and carrots to get some warm meals. It was

Day 2! I found 2 ready to drink shakes that are yummy. Since I flew for business I had to go shipping when I got here. Luckily I stay in a hotel where I have a fridge. I packed my lunch and off to a full day of training.!!! I remember when I first got my date and all I thought was that is so far away!!! Now it's less than 13 days!!!! The people that I have told are so excited for me and ask lots of questions. I am nervous and excited how are you all handling the wait???

      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.
