aprilt10309 4 Posted July 3, 2015 Today starts my pre-op liquid/liver reduction diet. My surgery isJuly 13th so 10 more days! I just hope I can get through this liquid phase!10 more days yay! What are you planning to drink for liquids? I am also nervous about the liquid phase. My surgery is on the 29th.I have to do 4 Protein Shakes a day that I'm mixing with unsweetened almond milk, sugar free clears (popsicles, jello) sugar free gum, fat free broths, 1/2 cup non strachy veggies a day for chewing. I plan to mix them with my broth to make "soup"Good luck with your surgery! That's a great idea. Are you hungry so far? What Protein Powder did you end up getting? I like the synthrax nectar fuzzy navel. I am looking for an unflavored one for Soups or Jello. Good luck with your surgery too. I may check back in w u post op to see how it went? (If that's ok). I have like no pain tolerance and am quite scared. I've had a c section before wonder if it hurts more, less, or the same with this? I am sort of hungry, but I think it's all mental at this point. It doesn't help that I'm at work and there's pizza and cupcakes in the breakroom (I'm an RN so we often get treats from patients).I'm using baraitric fusion, but I've never tried their unflavored one.

Is Bariatric Fusion flavored? What do you mix it with? I am a nurse practitioner that works in a hospital and I notice there are a lot of food pushers around, be strong!

Texas_Chick 23 Posted July 3, 2015 I totally found my new favorite pre-op food today: 30 dollar snowcone machine, sugar free zero calorie cherry or blue raspberry Syrup, and a handful of ice cubes. Totally hits that dessert craving I've been having! Yes! Not sure if anyone has a Bahama Bucks around them but that is where I go! "Thin Ice" snow cone- sugar free, carb free, everything free!!! Love them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you have to have surgery where u work? I do I bet that's gonna be sooooo awkward! I actually work in oncology so my surgery will be at another hospital fortunately. Bariatric fusion has a lot of different flavors. My favorites are chocolate, Cappuccino, and strawberry. They have cinammon, orange creamsicle, chocolate mint and maybe another. I use either skim milk or unsweetened almond milk and blend that with the powder and icecubes to make a shake.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phoenix924 16 Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) I'm loving Unjury and nectar Protein powders. Injury has a savory chicken Soup flavored one I love. I mix it with broth and heat it up. Edited July 3, 2015 by Phoenix924 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

naturegirl 320 Posted July 4, 2015 Where are you buying Bariatric fusion? The creamsicle flavor sounds good. We have Premier Protein and I prefer the vanilla and strawberries & cream. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
