2 week liquid pre-op diet

[Karlnjax 163]

I agree feel the same as @sarahbee my doctor is putting me on the same thing low carbs the with only liquids 24hrs. pre-op. I wonder why there are so many different takes on this from doctors and hospitals.

I will be starting my liquid diet in a few weeks. Questions: Where do you guys get your Bariatric Advantage Protein and what flavors are the best?

My office had it....but u can order it cheaper from Amazon. I hated BA but made it through.....if u were in the neighborhood I'd give you the rest if mines! I'd say get vanilla..you can mix anything with it...whereas you are limited with the other flavors.

I'm with the same group as Caligula and got mine at the office. I didn't mind it, I always added one scoop of vanilla, one scoop of chocolate and 2 ice cubes and Water. I am 8 days post rny and doing well. I'm being a very thankful lady this week!

Sorry, Caligul

SOrry.....Caligul

I am struggling! It is the end of my fifth day. I am supposed to have 5 Protein Drinks a day and can have broth, s/f Popsicles and Jello. Last night I skipped a drink and substituted for salad greens and chicken breast that was the equivalent of the drink. It helped only now I worry it was a bad idea. I way 240 and am already losing weight in my belly. Anyone else cheat?

I am just finishing day two of the liquids and my headaches are killing me. I am allowed h2o, broth, Protein Shakes and SF Popsicles or jello too. Oh and I can have chicken or a lean cuisine under 300 cal. once per day. I had chicken noodle Soup tonight and ate a few of the noodles

What's the worst is the dang headaches!!! No excedrin allowed and Tylenol is not working as I hoped.

I did notice this morning that my tummy appears more "deflated" than usual so that's good! I am 235 so very close to you.

Drink more Water. ..and just think some people aren't even allowed to have that lean cuisine. ...hang in there it gets easier. ..start trying to focus on non-food related activities. You can make it!

I am on day 11, 2 days left. The headaches are from detoxing. I cheated 2 times. One day I substituted 4oz. Chicken and a low carb veggie for a drink and it helped. The next time I cheated BIG time and had Chinese take out and spent the night vomiting. I don't recommend that. lol

I start my liquid diet on Sunday. Do y'all have any suggestions as to where to buy the cheapest Protein Powder? Also did you buy the unflavored, flavored, or both?

Costco is a great place to get your stuff. As far as broth goes I get chicken noodle Soup and strain it. Yummy!!!
