Day 4 of pre op diet

[thebean 12]

I'm on day 4 of the liquid pre op diet, my body is hating me right now. This is by far the worse day of the liquid diet. But I have lost 10 pounds already. My surgery is on Tuesday and I'm so excited!

Hang in there. Try to stay busy to keep your mind off of it. Having this surgery was the best gift I ever gave myself.

Oh and day 3-5 are the worst..if you make it to Day 6 your golden..its downhill from there

sugar free Popsicles, fudgesicles, SF Jello, SF snoballs (if you have these where you live). So much liquid you feel bloated. Drink ALL day.

Day 3 of my 2-week clear liquid diet was the worst. It does get better.

[NotLookinBack 164]

Drink plenty of water.. It fills you up.. It really does get better.. As I was waiting on my surgery(mine was later in the day) I told my mom and boyfriend I never thought I would see the day where all I wanted was a Protein Shake to eat.. You will get there and surgery will be here before you know it..

I have heard different stories...some say you do on week liquid diet prior to surgery then I've heard others say two weeks. Does this accurate? Any info would be very helpful please. Thanks

It all depends oh your bmi, your surgeon, stuff like that. The one week one is to shrink your liver but some surgeons want patients to lose more.

I ordered powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein powder, they have unflavored too. I mixed up some sf Jello with their strawberry sorbet powder, 1/2 cup is 35 calories.

ISO PURE helped me along with muscle milk light it takes a bit of getting used to but after a while it helps you loose the craving for food I did. I hated everything I tried to eat the text-er was like yuck no matter what it was.

I'm finishing day 2 with a screaming headache

[JudyMay14 29]

Wow, I suppose I should feel lucky. I have no pre-op diet. Surgery is on Sep. 9th. Only requirement is Clear Liquids 24 hours before surgery. I'm not going food crazy but do you guys think I should stop eating solids more than 24 hours prior? My doctor is not concerned with weight loss before surgery. He says at my BMI it's not really necessary. What do you guys suggest?

[FRED1977 186]

It wouldn't hurt to maybe do your last 2 days at 100% liquids that will really help clean you out and make sure you don't have any undigested food in that tummy.

I'm on day four with an upset stomach, I.broke down and took an immodium. Luckily the headache has passed, stomach still growls though
