2 Week Liquid Diet...time To Fess Up!



Recommended Posts

Hi guys :)

My 6th and final weigh-in is scheduled for December 3rd. I am most likely looking at a two week liquid diet around Christmas time! I'm worried about it. How many of you have stuck to the two week diet, and how many of you have ended up cheating?

My surgery date is November 26, so I will be on the liquid diet over my birthday and Thanksgiving. I plan on taking a long walk during Thanksgiving dinner, and I've asked my husband and children to Celebrate my birthday with a family game night instead of with food. I think avoiding temptation and always having Water on hand is a big help. I'm on day 1 today. I feel like crap, headaches and shaky, but I'm not really hungry at all. In fact, I feel like all I'm doing is eating/drinking sweet stuff.

My Dr. said I could only eat about 1500 calories per day two weeks leading up to surgery on Nov. 20. I have pre-op this Thursday the 15th and I know he will say all liquids until surgery. I just want it over with....

      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.
