cruzin2beskinny 6 Posted May 3, 2015 Hi so have any of you started your two week diet yet? I see my NUT this Friday I'm excited but nervous at the same time, I know I am ready, even though I know it will be a test of wills... not to cheat...I am really working on getting my mindset ready to do battle. It's hard because I have a couple of children I still have to cook for and just keeping in mind this is not for me even though it might smell good plays mind games. No you can not just have a tiny taste... Are any of you going thru this too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RNYGal 47 Posted May 3, 2015 I've been on my Pre-op diet for a little over 2 weeks. I have an 18 month old and husband so cooking is different but so far so good. My liquid diet doesn't start until 3 days before surgery for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cruzin2beskinny 6 Posted May 6, 2015 Wow 4 weeks is a long time... What kind of shakes are you using? I had purchased the Premier Protein shakes from costco - I got all three flavors since I was not sure what I would like.. The strawberry cream is my least favorite, I think because it is just not flavored enough... I had also purchased some sugar free syrups different flavors, so this morning I put some raspberry in with my shake it tasted much better, not sure if you have any of those syrups but they might be an idea to spruce stuff up to more your likening...

jwhat1013 2 Posted May 10, 2015 update on pre-op diet. i am on day 11 now 17 to go. I am on opti-fast and straberry is the least favorite. chocolate and vanilla are alright, but i am so tired of all of them. The only other thing i can have is broth. See Dr. on 13 for pre-op visit and surgery on 28th. Wish everyone luck and happy mothers day to all the mothers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
