What did you eat before pre-op diet?



Recommended Posts

Hi--

I'm waiting for all of my paperwork to be submitted for insurance approval and am feeling in a state of limbo. I feel like I need to be on a diet program in order to keep myself from gaining goo gobs of pounds. I just finished my 6-month supervised program and don't want to continue to participate in that. I still maintain a membership with Jenny Craig and could do that or I could go to Weight Watchers or try a low-carb program on my own.

I'm curious to know what other people did between submitting their paperwork and starting a pre-op liquid diet. Did you just eat with abandon or were you on a structured program?

Thanks for any thoughts,

Beautylocs

I acted as though I was already approved and started the pre-op diet.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
