Day 2... I Got This!



Recommended Posts

Hi all -

This is my first post on this forum. I just started my liquid diet, I am just finishing day 2. So far, so good. I don't want to jinx it, but I haven't had too much of a challenge. I am sure that will change, but I am thankful that I haven't had too much difficulty thus far.

Anyway I guess I just wanted to put myself out there, and I welcome any tips or words of encouragement any of you fine people may have.

My surgery is on the 21st. I am getting a tiny bit nervous but not so much about the surgery, more about the new me that I am going to become after it all. The unknown is unnerving and exciting all at the same time!

Lucky banders:) I can't wait to get my surgery. I was told around the first of January but I do have to wait for my approval. I took my psychological evaluation this last Friday. Good luck y'all!! Post those beautiful before and after pics to show off your success :)

Good luck! Exciting times a head.

Glad it's going well so far on the liquid diet, the weight loss from being on those shakes for 2 weeks was totally worth it.

I was nervous too, but come here for support all the time. I'm only 3 weeks post op and have 0 doubts that this was the best decision I've ever made.

Good luck to you and keep us posted on how things go. ????

I totally relate to your last part. My surgery is on the 17th. I'm super excited but I have no idea what to expect. But it's going to be great! :)

      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.
