Struggline-Preop Diet

[kathyv 0]

Hi everyone....I'm new to posting here, been lurking for a while though. I started my preop diet on Monday. I am doing Optifast 5 times a day. I can have SF Jello, calorie free non carbonated beverages, SF popsicles and that's it. It's been extremely challenging and I still have 2.5 weeks to go. Anyone have any suggestions for feeling satisfied or just not hungry. I'm hoping it's going to get better the longer I'm on it.

I just started mine today so I am not very experienced if the limit of your list is Optifast Jello and popsicles the only thing I recommend is lots of Water and s/f gum (preop) the gum has helped me today.

i just wanted to send you a reminder. Its hard to do the preop diet but its very important and if you can just do it this one more time you will get your surgery! After your surgery everything will get better and better. hang in there and stay positive,

Best,

Raye
