I start tomorrow. My diet lists plain yogurt in a smoothie only, as long as I stay within my daily calorie limit.

Pray, Speak, Do! ~Meesh~

Every pre-op diet is different. Mine doesn't allow yogurt at all or any solid foods. It is liquid only for 2 weeks

Is anyone else confused by the pre op diet? I've heard and read so many different allowances in the diet. My nurse isnt the fastest at returning calls and is new to any type of WLS.

Can any one tell me if yogurt and diet Snapple tea are ok?

Diet Snapple that is caffeine free is okay. Caffeine is a diuretic and you absolutely don't want that. Fo r yogurt, I was told a little greek nonfat plain yogurt was fine. I added a little agave and a couple blueberries. That was my dinner last night.

I feel like I haven't really been nervous yet either. It still feels super surreal and I'm already on Day 5 of my diet! 8 more to go!

I had an interesting call from the schedulers office this afternoon. I was scheduled for surgery on January 10th, but they said they'd had a cancellation and asked if I'd like to move up the surgery to January 5th..... Well, heck yeah! Put me in coach!

liquid diet starting on 12/29.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
