SURGERY DATE-April 3rd



Recommended Posts

I know I'm making the right decision and I'm comfortable with my choice. My only issue is finding foods that don't make sick. I hate vomiting...it's the worst feeling ever. Just kind nervous about social and family events. Making my new habits work with my day to day. Is anyone else coping with that.....

Follow your weight loss clinic (or its dietitian) and the eating rules set.

They really do work for 90% plus of people.

Even if you are one of the statistical outliers, there's a good chance your dietary hassles can be overcome.

I am one of those statistical outliers. The puree stage is going to be a challenge but I'll figure it out .... I always do. Cottage cheese and eggs are just nasty - I can't even get past the smell let alone texture.

I love eggs, in any form 😁. I cant eat plain cottage cheese, I just can't.

Congrats on your date!! I'm April 10th! I have a hard time with the Protein Shakes I'm not a fan of thick drinks but my nutritionist gave me some ideas to work with. I don't do cottage e cheese either, so I figured during the pureed stage I'll mostly stick with eggs and triple zero yogurt. I guess we'll find out when we get to that point what agrees with our bodies.

I actually like the Premier shakes. I let them get almost frozen. They taste so much better that way. I've never heard of triple zero yogurt but I'll look into it.

      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.
