Recommended Posts

Hey new friends. I have been on my pre-op diet for 6 days and have not slipped until today. I had 7 Pringles but the whole day Did great.

Should I be worried? My surgery is May 15th

Any suggestions or feed back would be so appreciated

Oh you are perfectly fine. nothing to worry about. Everyone eats something they should not have during their pre op diet. As long as its not a daily thing you are fine. I had 2 slices of pizza one of my days lol.

The better you do on that diet the better off you will be in the long run. If your liver is much smaller and out of the way there is less to maneuver around which means less probing and bruising so less pain post op. That being said I have heard people on here who have messed up a little bit and as far as I know they were okay.

You'll be fine, just don't do it again. It's 2 weeks of pain for a lifetime of health, just keep that in mind.

      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.
