Pre-op diet. Need a buddie

[Lovingmyself83 67]

Im sucking on a bad boy now (popsicle) lol. I heard that broth does help, I should probably try it. But oh wow, are you nervous?

Yes those popsicles are my lifeline. I stay sucking on those suckers. Jello too but I found a parfait sugar free jello at Walmart and some local grocery stores. Just a little different from the jello. I'm not too into the pudding it tastes a little too nasty for me. I have tomorrow then Thursday is my surgery. I'm almost there. I was hungrier today than all other days. I'm nervous and excited.

I just had my one meal that I get a day and I swear I'm feeling like I would rather be fat then go thru another day like today! I'm feeling super frustrated.

You got this don't give up!! I know it's hard but think of all the reasons you want to do this. Remind yourself daily that you're worth a healthier you. I also have been watching 600 lb life and it keeps me motivated. It helps me understand a lot of the issues that many of us have with food. We just have to change our relationship with food. Easier said than done but we're here to help. Don't give up!! Eat eat eat sugar free popsicles, drink your shakes, eat some Jello as much as you want and just keep drinking broth. Don't make yourself feel like you're starving. It really helps with you have this popsicles handy. Good luck and please don't be so hard on yourself. You're not alone in this.

I just finished the first week of my 2 week liquid diet. I survived...yay! It actually wasn't AS bad as I had originally anticipated. I have tried to eat things high in Protein. I am allowed to have greek yogurt as long as it doesn't have any chunks and that was pretty helpful. Also a lot of Premier Protein shakes! I have a "tasteless" Protein Powder that I have added to my "creamy" Soups and that seems to give them a little boost. But I do agree with everyone about the popsicles. I found some that are sugar free tropical flavored that are pretty good. My surgery date is April 19th. Good luck to everyone!

I just started my 2 week pre-op diet today. I can have one meal a day and shakes for the rest with up to 4 shakes a day. It's only 10:22am and I already struggling! It's the head hunger!!

I'm on same. The afternoons are tough! We got this!

I have not been doing well on my preop diet but I have a week left and am recommitting today. Good luck everyone!

I have to limit the Popsicles because even though they are sugar free they still have calories and i have restricted calorie intake during preop diet

My diet I only get 2 Protein Shakes. The rest is lean meats, raw veggies,fish.grilled chicken, turkey and so on.

You can do this! You gotta fight thru the 2 weeks. Its the hardest thing, but at this point you have to take the challenge if this is what you really want. I was thinking the same thing on Day 2 of this damn diet. But I had to remind myself what Im striving for. I have a 1 1/2 year old and I find myself with no energy for my son. I want a better lifestyle and this is the way. Thats my motivation, you gotta find yours. And thats other than being fat....

I'm scheduled for 4/19 also and today is my first day of liquids. I appreciate any ideas for what I can have besides the broth, sugar free Jello and popsicles. I'm meeting with the dietician in a few hours and will have to ask her about Greek yogurt and steamed veggies. Good luck everyone!!

I have not been doing well on my pre op diet but I finally got my head straight and today has been great. I can't believe surgery is Monday. My kids feel bad I can't eat Easter candy though. Lol They felt better now that I went and got my sugar free Jello.< br>
