October Sleever Preparing for pre op diet



Recommended Posts

I only have about 5 shakes to choose from according to my nutritionist and it looks like I'll be spending about $100 on shakes because I will have to drink 5 per day [emoji30]. I have chose glucerna hunger smart chocolate. Who else is preparing for pre op diet ?!

my pre-op diet should be starting in about a month. I have already bought some shakes. I have found there is one a "the dollar Tree" that I am allowed its called "protein Boost" it a mix berry flavor. its 45 calories, no sugar, and 10 grams of Protein in a 3 ounce serving. its made with a Hydomaxx protein Blend. its also gluten, lactose, and soy free. I am not sure if it will help you much, but its no to bad tasting.

My Dr. Provided everything I needed for my 2 week diet and I only can have what they provided. shakes, Soups, some other stuff. This will be the hardest thing I have ever done. I am not diabetic

My four week pre-op shakes and food is supposed to start Thursday Sept 14th ready for surgery Thursday October 12th. I actually kicked it off 15 days ago just to familiarise my adaption.

I did have a "blowout" for my sister-in-law's 60th 9/9/17 ... beer, smorgasbord, cake, etc.

Already down 6.9kg (16-17 lbs) ... caused my surgeon and dietitian much pleasure.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
