Recommended Posts

Just got my surgery date this morning. I am scheduled for November 16th! Anybody else close to this date? I’m both nervous and excited. Looking for support and people I can talk to that understand how I feel, as they are going through the same thing! Thanks

How is everyone handling their preop diets? I think my surgeon/ dietician are a lot more lenient than I was expecting. I get 2 Protein Shakes, 2 small Snacks from an approved list, and 1 frozen dinner that meets guidelines. Then, on the 3rd I start special Protein Drinks they provided and I lose a snack.....

I am ok until people eat their normal food around me, then i die inside a little and get hungry 😆.

No cheating though.

      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.
