Going to dietician tomorrow and little scared



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow will be my first of 3 appts with the dietician. The Dr. said he wanted me to start with 2 week liquid diet. I've been sooo bad since I saw the surgeon! I guess I've been having my food funeral!! Although it has been since March 15 since I've had any type of soda or caffine. I've ordered some Syntrax Nectar samples, I have already apologized to my husband in advance for biting his head off in the next week weeks, and stocked up on SF Jello. I guess I just need some reassurance that I can do this!!! I'm doing this for my health and to be able to actually enjoy life instead of just living!

I was scared before the nutritionist as well being I had already cut out sodas and cut down the carbs l. Ate fruits and veggies and a goid amount of protine. my Protein Shakes were my life saver! She was very happy with my choices and supportive with my slips. don't be scared or nervous they aare there to help you succeed!

The team is there to help you, not to scare you!

I too was scared though when I first started where you are, and I believe at my 3rd appointment with my nutritionist, she was calling me a rock star!

The support she gave and words of such, make it all worth it! ^_^

YOU can do it!

      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.
