Liquid diet help!



Recommended Posts

I've been on the liquid diet for about 10 days. No cheating. Down about 13lbs. I'm going stir crazy. I have had broth, cream Soup, Protein Shakes, Malt-o-Meal, yogurt and everything in between that's not a solid. What about scrambled eggs? I can't see where a couple would hurt me. My surgery is Tuesday.

Wow, your liquid diet is much better than mine was, all I could have was Protein, broth, and Jello. My liquid diet was only for a week and it was sooo tough for me, so I couldn't imagine 2 weeks worth! BUT, Tuesday is close by and I would try to tough it out, I know it's hard, but you don't want to risk it and think of it as a test of discipline and commitment to your new lifestyle...I laugh a little though because if we were all good at self discipline then we wouldn't be here. :P Regardless of the eggs, I wish you the best of luck on Tuesday!!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
