Preop diet coming soon



Recommended Posts

So I start my two week liquid and veggie only (steamed, raw or baked) diet on Sunday and I am terrified 😩. I went shopping today and got some Protein Shakes and Protein Water. Tomorrow I’m going to grab sugar free Jello, popsicles, broth and veggies. I’m just super nervous Im scared to death of being hungry I know that sounds weird. But I’m scared that I won’t get through it and I mess up. It’s not about not having faith in myself its about knowing myself.

So after saying all of that anything I’m missing that I should grab? Or any tips on how to power through these next two weeks so I can avoid being hangry (hungry and angry) and committing food-icide (food homicide) and messing up.

Being nervous about success is natural, I mean how many times have we tried to lose weight and failed, thing to bear in mind for the pre-op diet if you have a slip up its not the end of the world, don't let it become an excuse to go off the rails. Get back on track immediately. You will get through, I have no doubt you are much stronger than you give yourself credit for.

You will be surprsed how quickly the time will pass. One thing to bear in mind is that the first few days will likely be the worse, make sure you get plenty of Water, eat as much vegies and broth as your plan will allow.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
