charlotte0606 56 Posted May 30, 2018 Depends on what you are allowed on your liquid diet. I was allowed vegetables so I am eating a lot. I am trying to switch up the Protein Shakes so I'll have Protein popsicles and hot chocolate shakes, for instance. If I get too hungry, I drink Water and look at before/afters. Keep busy, sleep a lot and take it one day at a time. I have 5 left to go ! You got this Sent from my LG-H831 using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lala70 23 Posted June 1, 2018 Hey guys! June 28th here! I’m starting to freak myself out! Pre op diet begins on June 21st. I haven’t told anyone I’ll be having this done besides my boyfriend. Work doesn’t even know. They just think I’ll be out of town for awhile. I haven’t told a soul because I don’t want to hear any backlash. 1 ALFxRNY reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pearldrop 164 Posted June 2, 2018 My preop diet has been a bit of a disaster. My surgery is on Monday @1pm. So all Protein Shakes and Protein Water for the weekend. I’m looking forward to being on the other side when I’m all tooled up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milli2mini 5 Posted June 5, 2018 Mine is June 7th. I have been doing low carb high Protein mod fat diet. I was not required to do anything other than maintain carbs under 50 best I can for ten days. Today I will start liquid. And I think I will avoid coffee also. I had gained 10 pounds a month ago. Eating what I wanted. I have not had carb cravings like thought. I have lost probably 5 pounds n inches. Now I am nervous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kess942 2 Posted June 6, 2018 Hi everyone I have surgery on the 27 of this month. Getting ready to start my pre op diet in 6 days, the last 3 days is a liquid diet not looking forward to that. Any tips would be great. Hope everyone is well and happy. 2 FLREDHEADMOM and Pearldrop reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s been good so far, I was well hydrated before the procedure and have been on drips since. I’m going home tonight. My surgeon likes to keep people a few days post to up your fluids before they send you home. If I keep drinking as well as I have been I will be good, now the focus is Protein. I’m one of the lucky ones, I can still drink, and enjoy, Water. My weight gain was due to bad food choices, overeating and neglecting my health. My nutritionist has told me to stay on liquids for another week and then purée/soft for 4 weeks. I’ve been told to stick to 1/2 cup per meal of food rich in protein. 2 Milli2mini and Laughing Bird reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
