I was too damn scared to......after watching the surgery videos my surgeon made me watch.....................

It was clear as hell what the purpose was of the liver shrink diet.

I comprende'd and complied.

I'm too scared to cheat. Plus it's like a personal challenge for me to see if I can do it. I think it kind of sets the mind tone for post op.

You CAN do it and your mind tone (great phrase) will be enhanced.

One of my friends is a general surgeon.. had 2 abdominal ultrasounds done during my preop. Just to be sure.. cos I ate some nigerian food some 5 days before surgery.

Not approving of cheating.. just admitting wrong-doing. That being said I had lost 36 before my pre-op and another 8 during my 2 week preop.

I reached my surgery goal weight in October. I have a protien shake for Breakfast, protien for lunch then whatever I want for dinner. I've been eating all my favorites. I'm 4 lbs below surgery weight now. I'm throwing my best friend a 50th birthday party on January 21. I plan to eat, drink and be merry next weekend. I start my pre-op diet on January 26th.

I have enjoyed eating my favorite foods but not at the expense of putting on more weight.

I had a food funeral and enjoyed it. I also cheated up to two days before surgery. Did a full liquid diet though after. My bmi was 41 before surgery and.i guess I wasn't too concerned ant fatty liver. Not that I'm advising anyone to do the same, but now I'm 5 days post and 1) I don't miss food and 2) don't regret letting my old lifestyle go

I didn't have a food funeral but yes, I did cheat but I figured as the purpose of the liver diet was to draw out as much glycogen as possible, I could have a little more Protein (which I was craving) and less of the carb portions. Worked out perfectly, the surgeon even gave me a specific mention for having a 'lovely and perfect' liver. Makes a change for a man to be noticing my 'inner beauty' haha :)

I was told a story of a pt that had steak the day before surgery and when the dr went in with EGD scope prior to surgery and found whole food that hadn't been digested completely they cancelled the surgery and had to reschedule.

      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.
