Have three days left on the liquid diet...



Recommended Posts

Till my surgery on the 13th and it's getting harder honestly. My favorite place was taco bell and I see a commercial for them every 5 minutes it's ridiculous...As it gets closer to my surgery date, my urges are becoming stronger. Anyone have that feeling?

I felt like there was a food commercial on every minute or so the days leading up to surgery day. It also seemed there were more restaurants!!!! LOL.

It's only three more days - don't let the commercials or food establishments drag you in. Stay strong - it will be surgery day before you know it!

Best of luck to you.

I totally get it. My surgery is 2/17/14 and I'm flying on Saturday to San Diego because my surgery in Mexico on Monday. Not only am I going crazy wondering if everything with the surgery will be okay but also all I can think about is all of the things I wish I would've eaten before I started my preop diet and what if I'm not able to eat those foods after surgery LOL I know it's such a stupid thing to think about right now. I just have to remember that I am doing this because I am going to be healthy and slim since I'm turning 3–0 this year! Good luck to you! Your date will soon be here!!!

      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.
