EmDee02 5 Posted October 8, 2021 I am finishing day 1 of liquid diet and it wasn’t so bad. I am kind of use to sugar free and artificially sweetners because I have done Keto on and off for awhile. I am to drink 3 shakes and 2 Protein Bars and unlimited broth, sugar free Jello and popsicles. Oh and a boiled egg if needed. Why boiled egg I don’t know but I ate it! I haven’t felt deprived but I will prolly get bored soon. Just hoping the next 13 go by quickly! Good luck all! 3 OutdoorsGirl, Kaguragetshealthy_87 and terigetshealthy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crystal CW 19 Posted October 8, 2021 Day 11 of my pre-op diet and VSG on Monday 10/11. I’ve actually been really good and have enjoyed the Premier Protein shakes and have added the vanilla flavor of Premier Protein to my coffee. I should have done that years ago! I’m down several pounds so I’m sure this liver shrinking diet will lead to a successful surgery. I’m stocked up on broths, Isopure protein unflavored, sf popsicles, Jello and cases of Premier. Let’s do this! 😆 2 1 OutdoorsGirl, terigetshealthy and EmDee02 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Breanne (w 2 pups) 11 Posted October 8, 2021 I’m two days post-op. I’m struggling to drink enough liquids bc of how long it seems to take my stomach to digest these stupid pills. So many pills! Anyone else struggling with this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaguragetshealthy_87 41 Posted October 11, 2021 So I am starting my preop diet a little early, I'm really concerned about the size of my liver. I feel focused right now but I am at work. I ended up just getting frozen meals because I love to cook and I tend to overeat big time. I'm so excited and nervous. Ganbatte everyone! Fighting! Let's Go! 1 EmDee02 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Est_in_1984 2 Posted October 12, 2021 Just had a gastric bypass on Oct 7th. Recovery is going very well. Still not hungry. I have been getting my liquids and Proteins down. I just have pain from my one incision where they removed my gallbladder with a huge gallstone in it. I walk everyday even though its painful but i know i have to stay strong for recovery. 👍🏾😌 1 nrr599 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LyricalWarfare 6 Posted October 12, 2021 I was sleeved on October 8th.. has some complications (passed out when I tried to stand up) so I had to stay in the hospital half a day longer but now that I’m home, I’m doing better. Got lots more Protein down today and about 45oz liquid. Doctor told me not to count, just pay attention to urine color and whether mouth is wet or dry. I think my biggest complaint is a headache that I get when I’m really tired or when I was up from sleeping. I have my post op appt on Wednesday, so I’ll ask, but has anyone had to deal with a headache after surgery?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keepthefocus 13 Posted October 12, 2021 On route to hospital. Surgery planned for tomorrow. Was tough leaving the family but now I’m on my way I’ve settled a bit. Still anxious but ready too. 3 1 terigetshealthy, TeeNeg12, OutdoorsGirl and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
