So I don't actually *have* a pre op diet... BUT I think I am going to start one on Monday and follow everyone else lol. People seem to adjust better I think?

I’m jealous Kay! Haha it’s not that bad but it’s not that great either... But this is what we signed up for! Lol

I’m nervous and excited sprinkled with a little anxious.. My pre op diet starts tomorrow and it will be all liquids until Surgery.. How is everyone else doing??



I’m doing well, it’s frustrating at times seeing everyone else just eat whatever they want, but I know in my heart why I am doing this, so it gets me through... Day by Day

My thoughts on the pre-op diet:
The good; Protein Water from Sam’s is yum!
Iconic Protein Drinks are super yum
Evol Fire grilled steak is awesome

The bad; Makes me think of food nonstop
Tofu almost made me barf
Siggi’s yogurt is revolting, and I gagged on it
I’m jealous of the food I fix my boys
I miss wine

The ugly; I wanted real food so bad I ate an entire cantaloupe

And the beauty is this will all be worth it when we have the results we have been wanting. It's tough. I'm on day 5 and want a real meal and some wine too [emoji16] PS my fav right now is premiere Protein chocolate and caramel.

I'm doing much better, I had a great Friday and this morning I didn't even think about eating, I almost forgot my shake! I tried an Iconic coconut green tea thing that shot right back out of my mouth! A great big nope for that flavor! It's all good though, I rinsed my mouth with Water and then drank a premier chocolate shake. So, one week left! mondaymondaymondaymondaymondaymondaymonday

I feel so guilty about not having a liquid pre-op, but I have cut out many things already. I haven't had a candy bar in 3 months haha. I drink a shake every morning, but I make my own. (Today was 1/2C greek yogurt, 8oz unsweetened almond milk, 1 scoop Delicious Dream French vanilla Protein Powder and 1/4C of frozen GS apples). I am keeping my calories to around 1400, carbs fairly low, and no added sugars. Be that as it may... my weight hasn't gone down much :(. My body doesn't like to lose weight haha.

I'm also getting the sleeve. Where's everybody from? I'm from Toronto (Canada) but I live in New Taipei City (Taiwan). Navigating the health system here has been an interesting experience!

      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.
