Any February Surgery Dates Out There?



Recommended Posts

I am on a pre-op diet for 7 days before, only liquids the day before. It is interesting how different the pre-op diets are.

I am not sure why the differences. My Dr only required a soft diet 2 days before surgery, a liquid diet the day before, and nothing after midnight. But my Dr requires a 3 week liquid diet post op and I see a lot of Dr that progress sooner.

Thank you , my advice will be once you started don't end it half way. Go hard or go home. Because to think all this days on liquids might as well go completely till the end And be done with that step . And keep on to the next , , keep yourself busy and entertain , so food don't get in your head .....

      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.
