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! :)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
