Recommended Posts

Have you tried a probiotic that seems to help me!!! I am paying out of pocket so I am not forced to see a nutritionist so kinda on my own until two weeks before. Surgeon's office said I could start the 2 week diet now which is 5 Protein Shakes a day and one green meal (4-6 oz lean Protein and 2 cups veggies).

I usually get mine at Wal-Mart here in the states. They say refrigerated Probiotics are better but if they are not in my pull thing I forget to take them. I have been taking a brand called Ultimate Flora big pic of sunshine on box!!

I had my surgery on September 27th so we will be walking the same path. Good luck. Lord knows I am going to need it. I was 285 and now I am 263 it's not a lot but it's better than nothing. I am hoping for better weeks to come.

      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.
