PreOp Diet

I am having surgery on 12/28. I am starving! Is there any suggestions anyone has on anything good we are allowed to eat?

I'm right there with you.. on day 1 of two weeks... about to start chewing on my arm...

The first 3 days are the roughest. I ate a LOT of extra SF Jello. I found that if I kept eating the Jello every couple hours - it kept me from starving. The best Protein Shake I found was ready made Adkins Advantage. I like the Milk chocolate flavor - tastes a lot like a real chocolate shake. You can get a four pack at Walmart or your local grocery store for a reasonable cost. So I start the day with a shake - eat the jello every two hours until it's lunch - then another shake - wait two hours and then jello.... It really has helped me. I also drank lots and lots and lots of Water. I'm on day 6 and looking forward to my surgery on 12/26. At least then I won't FEEL hungry. Good luck to both of you. It really does get easier. Hang in there
