7 day!!! my liquid diet is for 2 weeks:(

Yes. I'm making my grocery list now. I saw that some people can eat one lean meal but mine is all liquids. Basically, the only things I can eat are Soup with no meat, Ensure or Boost shakes, juice and pudding.

My surgery was the 27th too! I must admit, I failed the presurgery diet completely. Hope everyone’s big day went well! [emoji4][emoji1319]




My surgery went well they wanted me to do 2 weeks liquid diet as well but on a few occasions I had a boiled egg it was Protein and I was starving with a hunger headache but I’m 4 days out and I’ve been doing ok, I’m down 8 pounds since surgery and I was suppose to start back on my Protein Shakes yesterday but it didn’t work out so I’m back to Water and I had a few scoops of Greek yogurt

Hi is there anybody else with the same surgery date as me or anywhere close? I’m excited and nervous all at the same time. Also I’m not looking forward to this liquid diet at all


My surgery was 2/26. I’m doing good - just today I’m introducing Protein Shake in small sips. I’m still in chicken broth, sf Jello, Water. I am healing great but fatigued. My post op class is Tuesday when we get to have some cottage cheese and cooked veggies and learn how to chew and portion. I’m at that soft food phase for 3 months. I’m excited about everything- maybe I’m one of the lucky ones I wish everyone was. Good luck

This is my second sleeve surgery ,
I had surgery feb 27th down 11 lbs feeling real tired, irritated and can only tolerate ice pops and Water chicken broth is making me nauseas which is weird because I love Soups and make and have them often. I’m having a weird pain I’m trying to believe that it’s the gas pain but it doesn’t feel like that it is directly in my stomach. Looking forward to seeing my doctor on Monday for my first postop appointment

Had my surgery on the 27th, still having some right side incision pain, other than that doing really well. How’s everyone else doing?

My right side incision hurts when I drink, breathe or move. The left side of my body feels like nothing happened. I'm trying to increase my liquids but it's hard.

Same! I was on 2/28. I've found that walking and standing helps. I'll just stand and watch tv. Also liquid Tylenol has been helpful. I'm sure these pains are totally normal. Recovery sucks but it will be so worth it in a month :) best of luck!

Congrats I think a class is great I don’t see my doctor until 3/16 for my two week check up. I haven’t tried my Protein Shakes again since they made me vomit the other day but I did purchase the Protein water today so I’ll see how that goes Image1520187938.714239.jpg

      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.
