cockapoomom 89 Posted March 2, 2015 Hello! I am new to the forum and scheduled for gastric sleeve on 3/16/15. Today is day one of my all liquid/protein shake diet for two weeks. I have chosen Isopure whey Protein, unflavored and almond milk. I also have Premier Protein and the Isopure liquid pre made beverages.< /p> I will probably stop by the store and get some sugar-free pop cycles, Jello and broths tonight. I was wondering if there was anybody who was starting their pre-op diet or have started already and had any tips/tricks for adherence. Thanks!

cockapoomom 89 Posted March 3, 2015 Yesterday wasn't so bad! I had 2 Premier Protein shakes, one at about 10 am, the 2nd at about 2pm then had Almond Milk with Isopure whey Protein about 5pm. My boyfriend and I went to Walmart about 6pm for plenty of Clear Liquids then stopped by Home Goods for some candles and other goodies. I came home and had a sugar free Popsicle and cup of chicken broth. I think I'm just so excited for my surgery that sticking to this Pre-op thing is like a bonus as I keep thinking about all the weight I'll lose prior to surgery day. Let me know how you ladies are doing as your pre-op diets commence. I'm definitely here for your support and vice versa. Hugs!! Yvonnie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bcnile 8 Posted March 4, 2015 Surgery date is March 18th. I technically start pre-op liquid diet today. My pantry is not prepared....at all. I, surprisingly, got a call yesterday to schedule and they said...."Ok, start your liquid diet tomorrow." YIKES! Good luck to all of you. I'm new to the forums, but do enjoy finding people that I can relate to. I'll be following this post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
