elegant1 48 Posted May 22, 2019 So my pre-op diet starts officially on May 30 but I started yesterday just so I could adjust. Mine consist of 4-5 Protein Shakes and 2 cups of veggies . How much did you lose on your pre-op diet. I have to do this for 14 daysSent from my LML414DL using BariatricPal mobile app 1 Ohcinders reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chunkers123 9 Posted May 22, 2019 I only had to do mines for 5 days and with only liquids. (Sf Jello, sf popsicles, Protein Shakes, Water, Gatorade g2, and broth) I lost 10 pounds in those 5 days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ohcinders 35 Posted May 22, 2019 I guess I am lucky -- my doctor is only requiring a liquid pre-op diet for one day. And I have been told NOT to drink Protein Drinks before surgery as they cause weight gain. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

catwoman7 11,220 Posted May 22, 2019 I had to do 4-5 Protein Shakes a day plus all the very low (or no) calorie liquids I wanted - which included sugar free popsicles and sugar free Jello, both of which I ate with abandon because it was the only thing I could eat for two weeks that somewhat resembled real food. I could also have something like a cup of Tomato juice or V8 a day, and/or a cup of chicken broth. That's it. No veggies, nothing. I lost 15 lbs. 1 Ohcinders reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
