Been on the liquid diet for a week and I lost 10 pounds. So the end result will be good. Just save a cheat 1 for something good.

Did you have to say tacos? Lol. My surgery is Sept. 17 and I started my pre-op diet today. I just had a bowl of chicken broth with a little poultry seasoning and black pepper. Not too bad but I really want some real food. I am already afraid that I won't make it through the next 2 weeks without cheating. God I pray the cravings go away! As usual I didn't really get hungry for favorite foods until I started the pre-op diet. Now I am suddenly craving everything I can't have. I need some willpower. Never expected this!

Good evening! I started my pre - op liquid diet too today. It wasn't as bad as I expected but who knows what tomorrow holds. Hang in there and just know that you're not in this alone. Feel free to reach out if you are having a weak moment.

Sorry! (They were yummy!)

Our doc has us do a week of Clear Liquids plus Protein Drinks. My husband works in a very physically demanding job and the doc told him that if he just absolutely had to eat something on workdays, then he could have one baked chicken breast each day.

Cool. My husband's and my surgeon is Dr. Jayaseelan at Dallas Bariatrics. it's a little over two hours from our house to his office, so not too bad of a drive. I just feel a lot more comfortable and confident with him than with any local surgeons here in WF.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
