Cheating on the liquid pre-op diet :(



Recommended Posts

I cheated 3 times in 10 days right at the beginning. I pulled it together for the remaining time. My liver was still large but thankfully they were still able to do it vie keyhole. However I imagine my liver must have been very fatty because I still had a good 6 days of only baratric shakes and nothing the day before surgery. I belive it must have shrunk some but not as much if I hadn't cheated. Btw-I have not cheated at all post op.

I still have 5 months left of supervised diet. I worry about the 2 week pre op liquid diet, why can't the give appetite suppressants?

Most appetite suppressants aren't good for you and can cause surgical complications. If you are already worried about needing an appetite suppressant pre-op then I would encourage you to get counseling during your 5 months pre-surgery. You need to change your relationship with food - not by using an appetite suppressant.

Just was asking, I'm 5 months away and maintain 1200 to 1400 call diet range. My doctor requires two weeks only Clear Liquids that's why I asked just seems like you'd be very hungry

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
