Nuali,

I am having my surgery on June 6th and my pre-op appointment is May 29th, also.

3 wks from tomorrow. I'm so excited but I am started to freak out about the pre-op diet. I feel like I have NO CLUE on what I'm suppose to be doing! (I guess it's just my nerves)

Good Luck to you. Keep me posted on your progress!

Hi Nuali

I know what you mean i start mine Monday going for dinner tonight i am sure going to enjoy it .Optifast is what i will be having on Monday.I dont have to have a pre op visit my surgeon said but if i have any questions i can call them .I will be having the shakes in the morning ,the bar for lunch and the low fat jelly because he said i can have that and i will have my vegetable portion and make that into a serving of veg Soup because i dont want to eat the Optifast ones as pople have said they are yuck ,i will add some stock and have my low joule jelly for desert.I will alternate my dinner and either make a Soup or my salad portion with low fat dressing.The only things i can have extra is the jelly i am not allowed any meat ,chicken,fish or fruit .I can have diet coke and apparently i have to drink lots of Water .Sounds very boring

all the best

      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.
