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!!

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.

Two meals a week? Like what?

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. :(

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

      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.
