Recommended Posts

This is going to be a tough one for me I can only have.

1.All I want sugar-free Jello, or sugar free Popsicles

2.Low carb Protein drink only two per day

3.no sugar added fudgsicles 3 per day

I have to do this for two whole days:rolleyes:

wow I see alot of other diets, and mine is simular to the above!

But Clear Liquids for 2 days, and on the 2nd day I have to take 2 doses of milk of mag.

I am on a low carb diet consisting of 2 vanilla Optifast shakes a day (let me tell you I can't stand these things and gag everytime I have one), plus Protein and free veges for night time meal. I can have cheese and/or ham and any free veges if I'm too hungry between shakes/meal. No dairy at all (other than cheese) which is killing me.

Surgery is 4th Novemer so thankfully not too may more shakes.< /p>

Mine is:

Protein shake for Breakfast and lunch

Tomato juice for morning snack

Lean Quizine, Healthy Choice, or Smart One for supper

Fat free yogurt or Protein Shake for evening snack

Carbs are to be 50-80 grams

Protein is to be 60-90 grams

Calories are to be 800-1000

I do get the evening off the night before my surgery. I had already planned a Pampered Chef party and they said as long as I do not get carried away that I would be fine. I have planned food that is very "pre-op diet friendly". I know I will be over a bit on carbs and calories but not by much if I use my head.

I start my pre-op diet on October 29 and go to November 11 when I have surgery. Just under two weeks by a day or two.

Mine is low-carb, which I'm well versed in. I've been doing Atkins on and off for about 2yrs now.

Starting today! Surgery in 14 days!!! :):w00t::thumbup::w00t::mellow:

      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.
