dena1258 13 Posted June 29, 2015 @@AvalonNeeCee I've been doing the same thing as you and having all my food funerals. A lot of people recommend not doing that, but actually I think it's been helpful for me. I've been really noticing the food that I've been eating. Now that I'm not just shoving it in, I'm finding that the sweets really don't make me feel well afterwards, and i don't enjoy them as much as I thought I would. i start my diet on July 10th and I intend to keep this in mind when I feel like I am craving carbs. I'll be thinking about you. We can do this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sleevenv 483 Posted June 30, 2015 The first 48 hours of pre-op is the worst. Most of the withdrawals are on the down hill after that! Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BarrySue 602 Posted June 30, 2015 The first 48 hours of pre-op is the worst. Most of the withdrawals are on the down hill after that! Good luck. Yes, exactly! I got terrible headaches from carb withdrawal for the first 2-3 days, then I felt much better. Its July 16th for me, scared and happy at the same time! Good luck to us all We'll just be a few days ahead of you, whining nonstop! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair_Maidan 27 Posted June 30, 2015 I didn't realize how addicted I am to Diet Pepsi! It's definitely my weakness I'm only required a 3 day pre -op diet but I decided to start following a high Protein diet 2 weeks pre-op to help me prep mentally. Today's only day 2!

AvalonNeeCee 127 Posted June 30, 2015 First day and doing well. Feeling good. Almost forgot to drink Water so I'm prolly not going to get in 64 oz. But so far I feel ok. I'm spacing out my real foods with the shakes. Bfast had shake and banana. Then had my gummies Vitamins. Then another shake. lunch had half cup Beans one eighth of avocado. Worked on water this afternoon and plan to do 3rd shake if I can't wait till I get home . dinner will be steamed carrots and 3oz lean chicken or turkey for Protein. ..I can do this. To clarify first day pre op 2 week diet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kazy298 15 Posted June 30, 2015 I wish I could have some real food! My doctor is super strict! I can only have broth, Jello, ice pops, and my shakes!!! I'm super bored already! Plus I hate these shakes! I'll admit I've been living off ice pops and broth ???? idk if my body is going to crash without any nutrients? His is def harder than I thought it would be ????

AvalonNeeCee 127 Posted June 30, 2015 Try the premier Protein, they are pretty decent, not too expensive, and you don't have to mix anything. costco sells them and online you can get them. costco.com too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kazy298 15 Posted June 30, 2015 Yeah I've tried them thanks, you know what it is I hate milk in all forms, so they taste like chocolate milk, too creamy it makes me sick but I've been telling myself it's like medicine I have no choice but still I'm drinking about one a day ???? it's better than nothing right??

Have you tried unjury's chicken Soup flavor and unflavored Protein Powder? They are awesome. I dislike shakes, so I'm using those. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rachelr86 1 Posted July 1, 2015 My surgery is July 13th! Started my 2 week pre-op diet yesterday. It actually wasn't terrible because I was so busy at work and it made it easier to just grab a quick shake! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
