hows your liquid diet going? i don't have to do full liquid thankfully!

It. Sucks. Majorly. But after day 5 it gets easier. Days 1-4 were the WORST!!! I’m on day 6 now and have no issues lol

Edit to include that for some reason my username changed from Mobile to actual site. I’m me regardless 😂

HI ALL!!!! My date is Sept 10th and I AM SO EXCITED. Just had a question maybe one of you can help me out with. My surgeon put me on a liquid diet for the past 2 weeks and I gotta say, the first 3 days were sooooo hard because of no coffee. Ive literally been having 3 Protein Shakes and chicken broth everyday. Soooo freaking tired of it...But they mentioned I can have sugar free popsicles. I haven't been able to find them in any grocery stores near me but there's an ice cream shop down my street that has no sugar added Water ice sorbet. Now my questions is.....What is the difference between "sugar free" and "no sugar added" & can I have this sorbet lol

Hello my pre-op diet is one Meal Replacement and one Protein supplement shake. My doctor says in between if I really get hungry I can have a salad.

No sugar added means that there is naturally occurring sugars like from fruit. You would have to check the ingredient label to see what the sugar comes from and then the nutritional analysis to see the carb content to see if it could be allowed on your pre-op 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.
