Liquid diet Blahs!!!



Recommended Posts

I am doing horrible on my liquid diet!!! I have been drinking what the doctor told me to drink but today the kids had some prezels bites and I had a few bites -- about 4. :cursing:After that I made myself drink liquids and eat my Jello. *sigh* This is sooooo hard!!! I want to do well but I feel like I am starving, although I know I'm not. Well tomorrow is a new day and my surgery is scheduled next Tuesday November 25th. Less than a week left.:)

Keep after that diet. It is okay if you have a "cheat" moment now while you are on pre-op. Just be sure you get that out of your system because you don't want to do that on liquids after surgery.

I cheated here or there before surgery too. I think everyone does.

You are almost there! Five days to go and you will be banded! Hang in there!

I was not perfect on my pre-op but for the last two days before surgery. Prior to that I was perfect about 90% of the time. Stick with it. You can do it! And don't beat yourself up too hard. Just do what you are supposed to and don't give yourself permission to slip, but if you do, don't beat the crap out of yourself. Just learn from it and move onward. I was banded yesterday, no complications.

      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.
