Need a Buddy! My surgery is 7/22



Recommended Posts

I start tomorrow' date=' I will do Slimfast for 13 days and Clear liquids the last day. I plan to have unsweetened applesauce in between as a snack..I have to be at a 1200 calorie a day diet the 13 days. SF Jello is allowed also.[/quote']

Tomorrow? I start Monday 8th but I may try it over the weekend and have my first two days at home instead of work. I do slim fast and Atkins with a meat and veggie at night . Sf Jello and Popsicles in between. I have bought some shakes already and stocked up on sf jello too. I also went out and got liquid Tylenol since I'm pretty sure headaches will be bad the first few days.

Asdamato' date=' I'm in the Orlando area. My family is in Brevard though. I'm getting excited, but I'm kind of afraid of the pre-op diet:). We will be going through it with lots of others on here. That's a blessing. Lets keep in touch.

      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.
