Preop Diet Optins



Recommended Posts

I am starting my preop diet tomorrow and I was given two choices. A. Follow the diet they give me which is Protein and low fat options. B. shake for morning shake for lunch and a high protein low fat for dinner. I am leaning towards the shakes because I read that you can lose more weight and it is just easier for me. Wanted to see others inputs on here that have either gone through it or are going through it now. Also I would liek to have some recommendations on what shakes are good and which are bad taste wise and quality and price.

Thanks Everyone

I did the two shakes and a lean and green meal. It was not that difficult.

I did the same. Honestly the shakes are all about personal taste. I hated Bariatric Advantage and liked Unjury chocolate splendor and GNC whey Protein. It's all trial and error.

Premier Nutrition is a very good shake each shake has 30grams of Protein and 160 calories it come in chocolate, Vanila and I just found strawberry. You can get it from costco if comes with 18 shakes for $25.00 or you can look it up on line. Amazon recently had a really good sell on the shake 12 for $7.00 I bought 4 boxes for $28.00 and 48 bottles of shakes. It is one of the best I have tasted.

My surgeon told me that the Coscto shakes will cause Constipation because they are egg based. He was right because I tried them as part of my preop diet. So good luck with those. I am staying with Isopure.< /p>

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
