Recommended Posts

How are you all doing? I start my pre-op liquid diet on Monday. A little nervous but oh so ready.

I actually pulled out my too-small clothes and hung them up in the closet. I had a mini food funeral with chocolate ice cream and Chinese takeaway. I'm gonna take before pics tonight.

My bag is packed for the hospital.

This Is Really Happening!!!!

Hi Danai and MissT...

My surgery is this coming Monday - Oct 23rd! It's been a long wait and I'm ready to go. I've been enjoying my chicken broth, popsicles, chamomile tea and Protein Water. I took two weeks off of work to recover.

I'm excited for all of us. :)

      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.
