Mentally preparing for pre-op diet



Recommended Posts

My surgery is on 01/16. I start my pre-op diet on 01/02. Excited and nervous all at the same time. So surprised at the many variations in a pre-op diet in here.

My surgery is on Jan 15 and I start the liquid diet Jan 1st. I am nervous about it too. I'm hoping that distractions will help me get through it. Gonna toss all other food out this weekend.

Ohhh boy I just finished my pre op liquid diet and it was tough. Specially threw the holidays. Take it one day at a time. I did a 14 day liquid diet and lost 8 lbs. I had my surgery the day after christmas and I'm now back on liquid diet for 3 weeks.

Stay strong and don't cheat if you can, this is all for the better.

Stay strong. The pre-op diet gets easier after day 4 or so. Best wishes for your surgery.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
