Hey the pre-op diet is hard....everyone who had to do it can atest to that....just stay focused on what you desire....a healthier life, the first 3 days will be hard, you will hit what I call "the wall" and on day 4 it will become easier....

Just think of the pre-op diet as it getting you ready for the eating stages after the surgery (which it is)

Hi Mich! I know you can do it. I was sleeve this past Tuesday and had a two week pre op diet of 2 shakes and one Protein rich meal a day. Well....let me tell you.....over the 14 days we were at Disney for 6 days (over Thanksgiving no less) and then I had a girls weekend in New York City. If I can do it with all that going on I know you an too! I just kept thinking about how important it was for the surgery to be as successful as possible! Good luck! Let me know if I can help!

I did good but now waiting waiting waiting for Monday. Getting a little nervous. Don't know what I'm afraid of but none the less. How did your surgery go. How long did it take. How long we're you out.

Thanks for the support.

Home and trying to get as much Water in me as possible. Feeling good. Hubby a big help. He got us out of dinner Friday night. I did not tell a whole lot of people. And a big dinner being planned this weekend. He said we couldn't make it. He's has been soooooo good this past week, helping me get ready and then helping me get through the nerves. Don't know if I could have done it without him.

      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.
