Pre-op Milk diet day 1 arggggghhhh



Recommended Posts

Hello all new to the board and getting banded in glasgow scotland on the 16th september. Starting the pre-op milk diet today for two weeks and am quaking in my boots!! 3 pints of milk, two low fat yogs and a stock cube only per day. So worried that I am going to fall flat on my face at the first hurdle. I have a very demanding job working in a acute medical ward 4 x 12.5 hours a week and am scared i won't be able to hack it. Anyone else about to embark on this type of pre-op diet that wants support and to support let me know.

Good luck to all you scrumptious september banders xxx

I am with you Plumplump; at 65, I am not sure that I want to sustain the restrictions, and post-op. I started the clear liquid diet, and bombed-out due to a tachacardia attack. weird. hope you are doing ok with proceeding per surgery.

Hey Plumpplump( Love the nickname LOL) I am on day 10 of my 21 say pre op diet and its the hardest thing Ive ever done. And I quit smoking 2 years ago! Let me tell ya I love to eat. I drink 6 carnation shakes a day and that is it. I am sooooo sick of the sweet drinks Yuk but Im doing it and you can too. Just think about each day as they come. Dont look at all 14 days its overwelming. Good luck

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
