I had to take a 5 hour education class this past week and it was very informative and I got a lot of samples of Protein and Vitamin stuff. BUT, it felt like I was in the class foreeeevvver. It went by so slow, I felt like I was back in school again lol

Awesome! I start my pre op diet Wednesday and I'm excited and not at the same time! Excited because it means surgery is near but nervous because I'm scared of how I'm gonna handle liquids only for two weeks... It's weird that so many people have different pre op diets... What does your dr have you doing?

Hi Ladies,

I know my date will be in April but I do not have a definite date, yet. I share the excitement and nervousness. I am so inspired reading all the success stories. I definitely need buddies. I am happy that we can all go through this together. I am in Raleigh, North Carolina.

I've noticed that about everyone's diets being so different. I was so worried I would have to be on all liquids but luckily that is not the case. My 2 week diet consists of 3 meals a day high in Protein and very low in carbs. Each meal I can have up to 3 oz of a lean meat high in Protein, and 1 cup of vegetables. I have to drink 3 Protein shakes a day in between meals. But the day before surgery is liquids only. Not too bad! But I love me some carbs and most people do so the first few days will still be hard since my body will go into ketosis from the lack of carbs..but I GOT THIS!! :)

Wow yes the diets are definitely different. I have never had good self control so the next two weeks are going to be interesting. I'm glad I have this site for motivation and support!

I'm April 8 and I'm in Australia. I've been such a pig with some kind of 'last meal' mentality towards chocolate and ice cream that I'm sort of looking forward to the milkshakes and Soup only! Lol! Bit nervous about op too but I'm ready for a new life! Good luck everyone :)

      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.
