Oh god! slipped off the pre - op wagon!



Recommended Posts

Today is my last day on the pre-op diet. I can't even stomach the thought of having a smoothie for Breakfast. After drinking them for two weeks as my only meal, I'm done. I can't wait for tomorrow for my new chapter in my life or my new life, Titled, Living the skinny life.

I slipped as well on day 3 of 2 week pre-op I went to Subway with my son. I had a 6 inch turkey, a raspberry cookie and strawberry tea for dinner. It was so good. I was back on schedule the next morning.

Keep your eye on the prize.. If you want this bad enough you will make it through your pre-op diet. I know it was a long time before I actually ate real food. From preop diet on to about 6 weeks total. I didn't think I could do it but I was determined to see it through. I am so glad I did . The reward is health and happiness with yourself and pride in knowing that you are doing it.

Best of Luck throughout the rest of your pre=op always follow your Dr.'s instructions.

      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.
