10 Day Clear Liquid Diet



Recommended Posts

I'm on day 6 of my clear liquid diet--nothing but broth, sugar free Jello and Popsicles, and 3 Protein Shakes a day. I'm starving!!! Lol. I'm really looking forward to my surgery Friday, though. I'm a little nervous about the pain, but super thrilled to have a chance to be healthier and feel better about myself. With God's help, this is going to be a success!!!!

Liquid diet.. I've done individual days here and there to see how I will manage when the time comes to do this every day for a month. What I notice is that mid morning and mid afternoon I'm exhausted! I could fall asleep at my desk talking to someone! It's awful! I'm drinking Body Fortress which is a Protein pdr. Sometimes I drink 2 servings at a time. Not only do I become exhausted, but I get jittery and sometimes nauseous. (yes, I still drink black coffee. 2-3 cups in the a.m.)

Has anyone else had this problem?

I also use my c-pap @ night.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Dawn

I think this is the hardest thing I have ever done. Everywhere I look there is food. People at work talking about food. I'm getting by one day at a time, but man this isn't easy. Im not hungry but my mouth wants everything. Sigh.... Please let this get better.

It definitely is .. Especially when you see your family eating and you can't participate ... But I have convinced myself to stay strong ! The battle has only begun !

Friday I start my 2 week pre-op diet but unlike all of u, I'm allowed to have 600-800 calories worth of food like yogurt, cottage cheese and lean meats...I'm kind of jealous that mine isn't all liquid lol I dont feel normal being able to eat food for mine (I know sounds weird of me to say that lol) you all are doing amazing!!!

      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.
