Surgery on sept 29...currently on day two of preop diet doctor wants me on



Recommended Posts

I have today and tomorrow yet togo with this preop diet. Im still doing random testing with my meter i will have something to show them when i go in on tues. Yay! Have to pat myself on the back ive been doing good!! Final push!!

Side note i was giggling to myself in the baby-food aisle and picked up two jars of the pureed meat i figured i will either like it or not anyway the jars will be perfect to hold what im allowed as far as ounces goes after i get thru stage one and two. I also made copies of the handouts they gave us in class concerning the stages and how long approx for each taped them right inside the top cabinet doors for easy access. Figure short cut for me and making mom think before she tries to give me something i cant have lol.

????????????????????????????????????????????????

Good luck everyone with your upcoming surgeries! May God bless you with fast recoveries and smooth sailing. My revision from lap band to sleeve is Nov. 5 and can't wait yo get this lap band out. The lap band was a nightmare. I can't wait to get the sleeve!

How you are feeling is natural I was very scared, nervous and distracted the last few days but out the other side and healing well concentrating on getting my Protein and Water in. Moving to pureed food was scary too as a few of the Protein Shakes caused dumping too much sugar. Are you on mfp I am tracking my food there. Taysidebell if you want to follow. Please look at the blog below I found good recipes there

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
