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? ??

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
