ojibway 203 Posted November 5, 2014 I'm starting my Pre-op liquid diet this coming weekend Nov 9th and Surgery the 24th. Any suggestions or warnings about the phases of the pre-op diet? I read a couple of blogs about loose bowel movements or severe hunger the first few days. My Dr is letting me eat as many Green Veggies I want, plus 3 Protein Shakes a day. I hate the consistency of milk shakes, so I'm having a hard time finding the right protein..so far I have tried powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury, Jay Robb eggwhite Protein and nectar.. so far I like the nectar protein best. not to sweet. anybody else have the same instructions for pre-op diet???

LovinLifeHealthy 0 Posted November 5, 2014 I am 1 week post op and also had to do the 2 week full liquid pre-op and did Unjury chocolate shakes 2 times daily and Soup at night. (No veggies like you) My soup could be hearty soup, even turkey chili, just not cream based Soups. It was tough the first 4 days. No stomach issues ever I just wanted to chew something and as much as I loved the shakes, I was soooooo tired of them after the first week. I never in my life looked so forward to soup in my entire life! Lol! After, much of the same but it's easier because you don't want to eat. At least I haven't. I had the Plication with the band.

Chele H 427 Posted November 5, 2014 I used Premier Protein ready made shakes, I liked them. I recommend G2 or Vitamn Water Zero to keep your electrolytes in balance. It helped with hydration, headaches and the light headedness. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
