I have 2 weeks of 2 shakes a day and 1 meal. Healthy choice is the recommendation plus 3 cups of lettuce w/low calorie dressing or 1 small fruit or 1 60 calorie yogurt. 4 days 6 pounds down. Everyday gets better than the day before Thank God

IF you are allowed yogurt on your preop diet try the Dannon Lite and Fit 80 calorie ones...the chocolate raspberry and the caramel macchiato are really good and the container has 12 g Protein. You are moving towards something awesome! These are just the steps on the way.

My preop diet is 500-700 calories a day and I'm having a hard time getting in that range with Protein Shakes, sf Jello, broth and sf Popsicles.

@@Megan00 I've lost maybe 12-15 on pre-op diet so far with 5 days to go. I forget, what day is your surgery? I just had my final pre-op visit with Dr. Halmi and the dietitian yesterday.

Hello, I'm new to the forum. I'm having my lap band converted to the sleeve Dec. 31. I wasn't asked to do a pre-op diet, but I am putting myself on one any way for a week. I have everything for a full liquid diet. I'm very excited, and also nervous. Any helpful hints on some pre-op diet recipes? ??

      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.
