SF Jello Jigglers for pre-op Clear Liquid Diet?



Recommended Posts

So, I was thinking.....if SF Jello is okay on the clear liquid diet, do you think SF jigglers should be?

Well, that's what I was thinking, so I made it yesterday with some lime jello......BUT it kind of tastes like what you'd think Pledge would taste like LOL. I think it's too concentrated for the SF chemicals that replace the sugar LOL

Maybe a different flavor would have been better, I don't know. Anyone try it? Thanks!

I would just stick to regular SF jello... More liquid when it dissolves and you need it.

Never mind your pre op!! :P

honestly not sure what the difference between regular sf Jello and jigglers is. but i ate a lot of it on the preop diet. especially when i wanted to "eat". just keep in mind the day before surgery they typically say no red or purple jello or liquids :).

Thank you for posting the "red or purple" dyes information. I had no idea. Tomorrow I fly into SD, so, that is timely info. Surgery on Tuesday! YEA!

I thought about making these, but with the unflavored Knox Gelatin. Add your own flavors.I have chocolate extract, mint, orange, lime, cinnamon,almond. Add your own sweetener to taste. Zero calories and gives you the satisfaction of chewing something.

Looks like a couple of us are having surgery this week. I am day 2 pre-op diet, liquids are boring, but frankly it is not as bad as I thought it would be and in 2 days I have lost somewhere in the 12 pound area.

Good luck and happy healing to everyone.

      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.
