Clear liquid diet and my feeling weak and sick



Recommended Posts

I'm having my surgery in 2 days and I'm on a clear liquid diet, I feel so weak and dizzy at times.. What are some good drinks or liquids that has some Protein in it to help not feel weak or dizzy? I need ideas please!

I would add some unflavored Isopure Protein Powder to chicken broth or try the chicken broth flavored Protein powder in water...Unjury has a good chicken flavored powder.

I've been feeling the same. I'm on day 3 of the liquid diet...I have my surgery tomorrow.

I've been making sure I drink 2 Isopures a day (40 grams of Protein each). They are nasty (in my opinion lol)...so try to add some Mio, Crystal Light, etc to it. And maybe even put it with ice in a blender and make a smoothie. The broth is good (I like the beef broth too), and sugar free popsicles I have some of the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken stuff...but I noticed it has milk in it and my NUT and doc said no milk stuff until after surgery. So, I would check on that before :)

The Isopure actually mixes in really well IMO but you must be sure that the liquid is less than 140* degrees. I tried adding it to my fresh brewed coffee once a d would liked to have died. Had to pour it out. If the liquid is steaming and hot to the touch then the Iso just seems to curdle.

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

      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
