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

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
