I started my two week pre op diet today. Although I am pretty sure of myself and getting through this I am still very nervous that I will screw up. I'm excited for this new journey in life. September 11th can't come soon enough!

So, I am finding that my surgery is all I think about!! Ha! It's hard to focus on anything else for long periods of time. I'm both excited and nervous. I keep wanting to ensure I do as much as I can to prepare. Just a little over a week to go!

Ditto for meeeee.

Hi I'm Ellen and have my surg sched sept 10. I'm on the liq diet phase.... difficult for me as I hate very sweet things, so the sugar free Jello and popsicles are too sweet. the shakes are a bit gross, but managable. I am wondering the reason why we cannot have raw veggies like cucumbers ? the goal of the 2 wk pre diet is too shrink fatty liver... why would raw veggies interfer with that? also, how about lo-sodium v-8 ? thx in advance for input!

Hi Katarina.
I'm Helen and I'm from Australia, my sleeve is set for 15th September, while I'm very excited I'm also shitting myself.. Lol sorry about the language.
I have to go on liquid diet for 4 weeks prior to the surgery, don't know how I will go with that, I see a dietitian with she is great and supportive. I join this group today as I want to here from other people and pre and post, so will follow your path.

Thanks
Helen

      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.
