What to consume preop



Recommended Posts

I just started my pre-op diet, and I purchased several Soups from Bariatric Pal online. They delivered in about two days., and you get a discount on your first purchase. The creamy veg is really good. I have chicken and Tomato on the way. I honestly could not make it without this Soup option for my Protein. I am sick of chocolate and vanilla shakes. There is a new product I bought at Wal mart called LIFT protien drinks. It is more like a lemonade made by Atkins. My nutritionist said it was good pre and post op. It is clear liquid w/ 20 gms Protein. I eat roasted chicken or turkey or lean ham on spinach leaves with tomato and vinegar, or stir fry or grill chicken with yellow squash and zucchini for my meals. I go to a Olive Oil/Vinegar specialty shop ( in our local upscale shopping center) and buy exotic vinegar ( strawberry, champagne pear, apricot walnut, etc....) They are super yummy, and I do not miss dressing at all this way. I hate the fake low cal/fat dressings in the market. It is pretty limited. You can get sugar free popsicles at Wal Mart really cheap. and SF Jello. I can honestly say by Blood Sugar is now normal. Good Luck. I really do not eat very much to begin with, so I have not had a hunger problem AT all...just an " I want" problem. LOL! I cannot say enough about the protein Soup on this site's product line. It is saving me flavor wise! I will probably buy this for many years to come after surgery!

      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.
