Has anyone gained a lot of weight prior to starting the liquid diet before surgery like did you eat everything that you know you wouldn't be able to eat after surgery?

Not me. I decided to make the most of the six months of diet visits that my insurance required. I lost 99 pounds before the surgery day. I was ready to make a real change and get started.

Yeap! I was just sleeved last Tues 1/10 and from Thanksgiving til pre-op I ate foods I had gave up a few yrs ago, when I decided clean eating. Gained 13 lbs. Lost 15 during pre-op, make sure to follow pre, better for you and easier. Feeling great 5 days later. :)

I have gained about 25lbs since October due to increasing my insulin in order to get my A1c down in the 7s before they would schedule me... I'm at 7.6 now and have my class on the 26th and will get my surgery date then!!

      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.
