Preop Liquid diet--diarrhea

[Tyani 117]

I know it's TMI, but I just started my preop diet today and I have been in the restroom constantly, is anyone having this problem or had this problem? Tell me I'm not alone lol.

If you don't mind me asking, for your liquids diet what are you taking, I'm waiting for my insurance approval and I'm just trying to prepare for all this. And how long do you have to be on the liquid diet

Yani

sugar free popsicles, low to no sodium chicken broth (you don't want high blood pressure ), Protein shakes, skim, soy or unsweetened almond milk, Water of course, and sugar free jello! That's all I can think of.

I'm on day two and OMG. I lost 3 pounds on the first day because I was in the bathroom all day. I'm a little worried because I've always thought I'm probably lactose intolerant. I just dealt with it but it seems like the liquid diet is really all lactose too. It was really hard for me to find Protein items that didn't have artificial sweeteners ( as they have me a headache). I'm wondering how much harder it will get to find lactose free and no artificial sweeteners and meet the high protein low carb/calorie. Ugh. I'm going to give it a couple days first and see if it gets any better.

Yes I had the ugly taste also!!

Thank you all I don't feel so bad now that I'm not the only one lol.

Ketosis breath... nasty stuff.

How are you doing on the Bariatric Advantage Protein powder? I had a tough time with that stuff... could not get a handle on the taste/smell. Bought two bags from the clinic, only made it through 3/4 of a bag of chocolate. Ended up switching over to the Premier Protein ready to drink shakes post-op.

I have the Premier Protein strawberry shakes. They are pretty good
