First Day of PreOp Diet Done



Recommended Posts

I'm so impressed with you all doing the liquid pre-op. I'm not sure how I would handle that. My Dr. requires a 2 week very low carb diet and that's it.

My 4 day of liquid diet. I'm hungry ????I broke down yesterday ????today I'm doing everything well. But hungry. What happen if U break down on this diet? I went crazy ate an English muffin and egg. I felt good. After. ????what happens if u eat like I did? Just that 1 day and do well after that please help me understand this diet ????thank you. I'm taking 1,000 a day. My shakes will take all the cl. They say I can have broth and a few vegs. I'm confuse. ????

So from this day on you have to get back up and do it! You can succeed! Do anything you have to do to keep yourself from eating what your not allowed. I've been taking pictures of my self naked on my phone an every time I go to open that fridge or pass by my favorite foods I just look at that picture and ask myself "do u wanna look like THAT EVER AGAIN"??? Lol And I don't give into the temptation. Now you said you can have 1,000 calories a day? And your food choices from your doctor were Protein Shakes, veggies, & broth is that correct? Did he mention Jello or Popsicles?

I am so hungry! I started mine today and failed miserably... I have to have 4 protien shakes, 1/2 cup cream of wheat, 1/2 c applesauce, 3 oz chicken or fish and 2 servings of veggies along with 64oz of Water. I know its head hunger but I just want to make a big sandwich and wolf it down. My surgery is on MArch 6th, I don't know if I can do this!

Yeah 4 shakes is a lot to get down. However it's awesome you get chicken or fish even just a taste :)! Just keep trying. Keep what you can have at the front of the fridge...so when you open it that's the first thing you see. I've literally lost it on everyone from hunger and I'm staying away from people including family as much as possible. They were eating BALLPARK NACHOS right in front of me yesterday while I drank broth! :/ but it's the same family I want to be canoeing with and fitting in a kayak come summertime! So I'm gonna keep going! :)

      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.
