April Dates



Recommended Posts

Day 8 of liquid diet. I'm hanging in there and luckily I do not have to cook for my family. They are very supportive and thats been a huge help. My son did liquid diet with me for 4 days...very sweet guy! Surgery is April 9! please add me to the list! I had to have an IVC filter inserted on Wednesday to prevent problems from blood clots. I developed a clot in my brain during chemo for breast cancer in 2006 and don't want a pulmonary embolism. I am ready to go and I have really appreciated reading about everyone's journey.

I havent been put on a liquid diet or anything as of yet i dont go to the dr until the 9th and my surgery is the 16th so on monday the 1st im gonna go on my own version of everyones diet no carbs and 2 shakes a day and im gonna attempt to eliminate coffee ahhhhh.....also wanted to ask everyone how much Protein is in your shakes? I always have used EAS advantedge and its 17g but i see some of you post more is that a switch from lapband requirements?

My Syntrax Shakes have 23g of protein, but I chose them because I like the taste. My doc is okay with EAS shakes too--whichever I can tolerate that is low carb. His requirement is that the shake has to have 100 calories or less for every 20 grams of protein, 5-10g sugar or less and 3-5 g fat or less.I think EAS has different formulas--the whey Protein Powder has 23 gram protein and 120 calories per scoop.

      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.
