Sleeveforme2017 144 Posted January 9, 2017 How do you function on just CL? Where do you get energy from. I Can only take one week off work due to staffing. I'm afraid I won't be ready to return in a week Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RLHgetsVSG 25 Posted January 10, 2017 Anyone have the EGD before surgery? I go on Monday and I am a nervous wreck! I had to get one as a little girl and I will never forget that procedure ????

anndriar15 35 Posted January 11, 2017 @@zizi_tops I'm a Northern Girl myself, Connecticut to be exact!!! I was required to do a High Protein, Low Carb for two weeks then 2 or 3 days before surgery Clear liquid Diet... However, I'm probably do all Clear liquids starting Friday. I have my EGD scheduled on the 13th, so I figured since I can't eat or drink anything after midnight Thursday, what a better way to start off! When do you start your Pre-Op Diet?

JBlue 19 Posted January 12, 2017 I'm scheduled for February 15th. My doctor does not require any type of liquid diet or otherwise pre-surgery, but I'm thinking about doing one regardless, just to make the surgery safer (and to jump start my weight loss). Would any of you be willing to share what you're doing/did? I haven't yet met with the NUT (and I plan on picking her brain, too), but I'd love to hear from all of you as well. Congratulations to everyone who's recently had surgery or are in the final stages of prep! I'm so excited for Feb 15th! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Congratulations to everyone who's recently had surgery or are in the final stages of prep! I'm so excited for Feb 15th! My preop diet isn't completely liquid it's 1 Protein shake 2 meals (4 oz lean meat 1 to 2 cups of veggies) the first week and 2 shakes one meal the second week. 64 oz of Water and if you're hungry they allow for a Fiber drink such as benefiber or Metamucil. I also do another Protein Shake if I'm still hungry, I have to stay between 1000-1200 cal and I use premier Protein Shakes, so not very many cal. In them. Hope this helps some!
