2 weeks liquid diet why[emoji45]



Recommended Posts

You can do it! It can be really difficult, but it is sort of a precursor to your post-surgery diet, at least for a while. (also depending on what your plan is!)

My pre-op diet was a month-long, 5 Protein Shakes a day plus a very small amount of Protein and up to 1 lb of non-starchy vegetables. I know the pre-op diets can vary drastically depending on your personal plan.

Just hang in there though, you can make it through! :)

I lost 18. But I gained back 12 post op before I came home so 🤷🏻‍♀️
Are you having to work that week? I was not prepared for how lethargic I would be on the liquid diet.

      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.
