Day 5 of Pre-OP Liquid Diet



Recommended Posts

It's been 5 days of this liquid diet and I have already lost 6 pounds!!! I'm pretty happy about that. Since I'm so short (almost 5'2'') I can't really see it; but I can definitely feel it! People who are vertically challenged, such as myself, don't usually start seeing a difference until 20-30 pounds lost, lol. XD

This diet has actually been pretty easy. I don't know if it's because I've dieted before, and that I knew what to expect; or if maybe I just got lucky. I really expected to feel miserable since I've seen so many people struggle with it. The only thing I can complain about is the amount of times I've peed. Last night, between 12 am - 5 am, I counted 19 times that I got up to pee. It's driving me crazy. @_@

You go girl!! I'm just ending my pre-op diet. I'm a shorty too! I noticed I am breathing better since I've lost 15lbs since I started with the POD. My doctor allowed me to have one small meal a day with two shakes so I didn't feel to bad. AND yes, the whole peeing every 30 mins is annoying! But as everyone else has said on here it's all means to an end. I'm really happy for you and I hope all goes well. Keep us posted!

That's awesome! Congrats on losing 15 pounds! :D Haha, glad I'm not the only one who lives in the bathroom. XD I will definitely keep you all posted! Is your surgery today? :o

@@Hiraeth That's alot of peeing! Just think of the fluids and toxins being flushed out of your system!! Great job!

Haha, I know right! My pee is now constantly clear. It's like I'm peeing Water. XD

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
