k.tallent 1 Posted February 7, 2018 I am February 6th, don’t have a time yet! I started my pre-op today. But I guess my pre-op diet isn’t like everyone else’s. For the first week I just have to replace one meal a day with a Protein Shake, high Protein meals, and I can’t have any carbs. {carbs in fruits and veggies is fine, just no bread, Pasta, chips, etc.}. For the second week it’s two shakes a day, one high protein dinner. Then the day before surgery is all liquids. I guess I have it easy compared to some people! Hope you’re doing well!!

k.tallent 1 Posted February 7, 2018 I’m scheduled for the 16th and I am on day 2 of my liquid diet. Today has been quite rough. I’m allowed 3 Optifast a day and broth, unsweet tea, sugar free Jello and sugar free popsicles. Well I’m on day 5 and so far it hasn’t gotten easier a week and two days left til surgery day!

amanda_davis1983 13 Posted February 7, 2018 I'm on day two and it actually hasn't been as hard as I thought, and my doctor is extremely strict on what I'm allowed to have. Full liquid. 3 shakes a day sup lamented with broth, unsweetened juices/drinks. Two meals a week. I'm starting to freak out a bit though my OCD is kicking in and I'm already itching to pack for the hospital. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just wondering, cause my surgeon might need to talk to your surgeon. I'm on day 5 of 2 week liquid diet and all I can think about is pizza.

kgb281 4 Posted February 11, 2018 my surgery is feb 13, 2018. I go for my final weigh in on Monday. Nervous about the surgery and apparently quite smelly at the moment. This is normal/ketosis I guess. The shakes taste so bad. Been on two weeks of them and haven't cheated at all 2 clsumrall and k.tallent reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
