First Day of PreOp Diet Done



Recommended Posts

It was a little hard but not near as hard as I expected, the 2 day caffeine withdraw headache finally went away which helps. I know the weekend will be harder when I am less busy. 13 days to go............I think I can, I think I can!

I had my pre-op appointment today and was confused about the clear liquid thing because Protein Shakes are obviously not clear. He said this 2-3 Protein shakes daily, 1 small meal of 450 calories at lunch not dinner and supplement with popsicles, broth and Jello. I had lost 7 pounds already which they were pleased with. I attributed some of that to lighter shoes! I was very encouraged by several ladies in the waiting room and their success stories!

I'm on day four of two weeks of diabetic boost only diet (plus all the Water I can drink, lol). I'm having fun making smoothies with them by mixing in ice and a couple of drops of flavouring. So far the chocolate with mint is my favourite.

Awesome! I ate some sugar free strawberry Jello like it owed me money today! Also, I went to a baby shower with tons of southern cooking type food and couldn't think about anything but gorging myself. But I just kept drinking my shake I brought with me. We can do this! It IS getting better day by day. Good luck to everyone on their upcoming WLS!

      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.
