still_dna 10 Posted June 9, 2016 And I'm so hungry . I have to do a 14 day liquid diet. The last day is Clear liquids only. How do y'all do this? I know some people are allowed actual solids on their pre op diet but my Dr's are real strict. I'm not a big sweets person either so these Protein shakes are getting old fast. Right now sipping on low sodium broth. Surgery is on the 21st and couldn't come fast enough. How are y'all doing? This is a list of things allowed Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jessica Singleton 9 Posted June 9, 2016 Hello! I just passed the half way point on my pre-op. Surgery on the 15th!. Two things really help me. One is finding things (on program!) to add to the shakes/broth. Two of my favorites are vanillia powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury with punkin spice added; and unflavored Unjury mixed with heated skim milk and add cinnamon. Are you allowed decaffe coffee? Protein power with milk and Decaf coffee makes a kinda latte. I've also tried (with nut's blessing) the sugar free Torani syrups. I just keep experiementing and pretending that I get to "cook" my meals. Only focus on today, if I think about how long I have to go I immediatly get hungry! I plan to spend this weekend cleaning, laundry, just staying busy to disctract myself! You CAN DO THIS!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KristenLe 5,979 Posted June 9, 2016 You could also try making a savory Protein Drink with V8, garlic, Protein Powder rather than a sweet one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chycky 671 Posted June 9, 2016 I am day 3 as well and it is not great. Crushed ice in smoothies has been good. broth is what keeps me sane! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
