Pre-Op diet started today surgery june 21st



Recommended Posts

I have been on my pre-op diet of liquids for a week with another week to go. Surgery is scheduled for June 13. It has been difficult at times but I just keep focused on my goal and know that this is preparing for the post-op period. Good luck to you.

I'm terrified. I've been struggling with my Preop diet. I was given the liver reduction diet. My surgery is on June 12th and this past weekend I had a 2 day binge! Re started today. I'm keeping it as healthy as possible but I'm not doing liquids except for Protein Shakes 2 x a day and Water. I'm eating salads 1 or 2 times a day. I'm wondering if I should do liquid only for 3 days to redeem myself from last weekend. [emoji27]

I have been doing mainly Protein Shakes but had to have some salad. I did lettuce wraps with grilled chicken a week ago and I have had two mainly spinach salads with lite toppings but mostly Water and Protein shakes. I weigh in tomorrow. Very nervous about getting hungry this week and messing up. I am working out heavy this week though to push 5lbs off.

      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.
