I Hate My Pre-Op Diet!

[NDN_RN 527]

Day 3 of my 12 day diet. Optifast shake x5 for 10 days and clears for 2. I want to chew on my own arm.

I'm dreading this part too

[welittle1 26]

I start mine on Oct.5th. I am dreading it also, I am a cook at our local nursing home and it is going to be hard! Hang in there, we can all do this!!

Good luck I know you'll do well!! I'm already doing two shakes a week while I'm in kaisers 12 week classes and I'm sooo sick of them!! It's only been 3 weeks I think my the time I get to the actual pre op diet I will want to kill these protien shakes!

Good new is...you are closer than I am to having this done and over with : ) I have to do a 14 day liquid diet.< /p>

I am on my last day of 14 days of liquid so you have my sympathy. It has been one of the hardest things I have ever done and I sadly have cheated. Really wish I wouldn't have because it just felt like starting all over again. try to look past the time you have to do it to the bigger journey post surgery if you can.

Hang in there.

NDN RN, yes the pre-op diet is difficult but you can and will do it! Before you know it it will be over and you will be headed to the operating room. I am 13 days post-op and I can tell you the pre-op diet really does prepare you for life after the operation...it is not easy afterwards but it is well worth it! Best of luck on your journey

Good luck with it and I feel for you. I am on day nine of ten of my liquid diet. I have done pretty well - not straying except today I took a bite of my daughter's apple as we were at an apple orchard and then I had a swig of Pickle Juice directly from the pickle jar this evening.

Hang in there NDN_RN! I'm on day 5 of 8 and I don't want to see another strawberry Protein Shake but I know this is the commitment and discipline I'll need to make my surgery a success. We can do it!!!!!!

[NDN_RN 527]

WE CAN DO IT!!!

[justbeth 18]

Yeah I have 2 more days left of this. It really has been torture.

[billyvmom 128]

It is hard it was awful but, you will get through. I struggled and messed up a few times but, did it and am three weeks post op good luck! You can do it!!!

You guys can do it! I had to do 14 days of liquid, and I will dry heave if I even smell a Protein Shake now! But boy was it so worth it, I was sleeved on June 18, 2012 and I'm already down 75 lbs, so keep it up cause you will be so proud of yourself!

Hang in there! I start mine on the 1st October. I'm really not looking forward to it but at least it means that I'll be closer to the surgery date.

Mine consists of 3 shakes a day and in between I can have veggies and salad. I'm just glad it's not shakes only
