Had my pre op today, went pretty quick. Also was told my doc changed to have all patients to 2 weeks on liquid pre op diet...luckily i was told i don't have to do the 2 weeks as long as i stay high Protein /low carb in the first week and start replacing meals with shakes

My date is for June 20th and I'm so excited I can barely stand it! And between now and then we go on vacation so pretty much as soon as I get back I do my surgical testing and start on my 7 day liquid diet.

I'm SO EXCITED!

I’m scheduled for the 21st, also just days after a 10 day trip. I’ll have to spend half my trip on the restricted presurgery diet :( but so worth it. My surgeon actually scheduled me even though we haven’t heard from insurance yet, just because of tight timeline. We plan to move out of state 4 weeks after surgery. Everyone cross fingers for me that insurance approves it and all goes well before and after move.

Hi all! I’m scheduled for VSG on June 11th. I was originally scheduled for 5/14 but pulled a chest muscle on the 8th day of my pre-op diet and has to re=schedule. Back on schedule and the pre-op. I guess I should be good at it but I’m hungry just 2 hours after my Lean Cuisine lunch. Sad.

      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.
