Recommended Posts

My surgery was set for Friday but I guess it was a double booking and was pushed to Monday I'm not up set just more annoyed I think lol I been on this damn liquid diet all this time 2wks and lost nearly 30 lbs so far I guess three added days wont kill me .....I am strongly considering eating a skinless fat removed slow baked soft chicken thigh for my Protein intake tonight and continue my Liquid Protein the rest of the four days .....that's shud be ok right seeing how my surgery is now 4days away instead of 1day now or is it a bad idea °_° ....

It won't ruin your diet and all your progress, but you have to be extra vigilant these next few days because even one little treat might tempt you to try more things right before surgery!

Great question for your doctor. He'd probably say yes, but it doesn't hurt to run it by him first. He may know something we here don't.

I agree with castel. If you are going to cheat on your pre op diet, cheat with something that is not going to compromise your chances of having a successful surgery. I know how difficult the pre op diet can be, and I'd hate to admit it, but I did cheat. With grilled chicken from KFC. And grilled salmon at Captain D's. The taste of meat in my mouth after being depraved of it was unreal. BUT I AM NOT TRYING TO ENCOURAGE YOU! Remember at the end of the day to do what is best for you.

I don't know when you put it in terms like "slow baked soft chicken thigh" it sounds pretty tempting :) lol

Ask your doc!

I know that does sound tempting, why don't you get like a can of Soup maybe lentils and puree it and see it that helps with your craving. Progressive has a good black lentil Soup and it's high in Protein. That what I did and helped me make it!

Look at it this way, at least by following the regular pre opt diet, your liver will have even more of a chance to shrink and you will be in better shape for the procedure. Please don't make that baked chicken.....It will be calling your name and then after you will be wanting more solid foods and your mind will be playing games on you...... :)

That's exactly the conclusion I came to after asking myself "Do I really wanna open that door " lls I honestly think that will make me want to "just have..." a # of things I haven't had so I am gonna leave the chicken alone and get some fine Soup :-)

I would do Soup. As it is still liquid and easier to get out of your digestive tract than a piece of chicken. I cheated on my pre-op diet i had mozzerella sticks. I understand your pain......I felt like i was so hungry.

see ... all drs are different. my 2 weeks post op diet isn't completely all liquid. its low fat... low carb.. and it does allow small meat. they said to make a meal out of a healthy choice dinner and whatnot. I'm only liquid I think a day or 2 b4. I would say it wouldn't kill ya. I'm allowed to I know that. good luck to us all

      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.
