Hi All

I met with my surgeon today and he said that I need to start my pre-op diet. But all he said was all liquids. So i asked does that mean Protein Shakes or Clear Liquids? He said I can do Protein for 2 days then clear liquids for the other 3. I was so flustered by everything else I forgot to ask him what is a clear diet? I know Water, and broth, but what about Jello? What color can I have? I really like the cherry flavor..lol I am like a little kid. I have my pre-op testing and final class on Thursday, I guess I can ask then. Any suggestions will be great!

You guys are doing really great! This will be great!

Chic80 I agree I've still been cooking but think it's making it a bit harder. May need to try letting hubby get his own he keeps asking. I keep thinking it's not a problem. But today I was hungry and I don't want to go wrong.

I know your pain. I have a 17 year old I still have to cook for and it's super hard to stay straight.

This is my last week of food. Start my pre op liquids Mon for surgery on the 29. Only thing I am nervous about is waiting on ins approval (wondering how long it will take to hear back from BCBS) and then also pre op for 2 wks. Sooo ready for surgery and after bc you will HAVE to eat liquids, etc but this before stuff, with all the Christmas parties, ohhhh boyyyy. I GOT THIS! Yall send a prayer up for me that ins goes through and pre op diet won't be for nothing. Lol

I don't think BC takes long to approve. You just have to have met all their requirements first, that's the hardest part. I didn't get my surgery scheduled until approval was done. They must be pretty sure!

Made it through pre op testing today. Woo hoo...no more hoops to jump through!

Day 3 of pre op all liquid diet and it is going decent. I am trying to take this time and adjust and break my habit and relationship with food. The only part is I feel like I am losing a friend which I am definitely not cause when is food ever a friend. Lol its getting closer. Tomorrow I go back to work after being off the past 3 days. I hope it is easy to focus and do my job with minimal energy. How is everyone else's diet change going?

My husband went through my closet and organized my clothes by size. Size 26 all the way done to a size 10. I was so glad that he did that for me. After surgery I can just blow through the big sizes and bag them up to give away as I go!

      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.
