All Liquid Pre-Op Diet help



Recommended Posts

Hi, everyone!
I’m on my 6th day of this liquid pre-op diet that consists of 4 Protein Shakes a day. I know some people have diets where they can have solids, but it doesn’t state that on mine. I’m having issues with the Protein shakes. I’ve picked up several kinds and I’m having a hard time getting them down at this point and I almost rather not consume anything. I definitely need the Protein though, so I’m trying to push through and not starve myself. Did anyone have a similar experience?

Try mixing up the Protein Shakes a bit. I added PB Fit to a chocolate Premier Protein and it’s so good! I also bought some puréed pumpkin and added that plus some pumpkin pie extract and that was really good. As long as what you add is low in sugar I think you will be ok. I was specifically told by my nutritionist not to add banana because of the sugar content or that would have been the first thing I tried!

Try Unjury’s unflavored Protein so that you can mix with what you can drink!

Congrats on your 6th Day. I was looking on the site. They have fruit flavored Protein, and iced tea. Have you tried those? Maybe drinking something that isn't a shake would be easier?

Hi. I had to buy my pre-op Protein Shakes directly from my doctor. One of them was really good. It was hot cocoa Protein Shake (mix w heated water). Then after surgery, I'm liking vanilla EAS Lean 15 (15 g Protein, 5 or less g sugar) blended in blender w ice (put ice in first and turn on then add Water and add ins then blend), water/milk, scoop of powder, and PB Fit (I use this) or a spoon of PB (if allowed in shake per dr), or berries (if allowed per dr), or cinnamon. It's good and a nice change from regular shakes. :206_cat:

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
