Hi I hope that you're doing well. I'm doing alright a little hungry but, it's worth it:)
My Dr. put me on a high protein low fat diet right away and no carbs.
*veggies, meat (Chicken,pork, fish, eggs, lo-fat chess), squash and beans are also okay.
*3 liters of water (one of the hardest things). *liquids : No caffeine no tea, crystal light.
**NO bread, No milk, No carbonation
On this portion I lost 7-8 pounds
10-days before surgery **NO caffien your not supposed to drink it or herbal teas without after surgery so, my doctor said to quit now so I didn't get headaches while I was recovering.
*protein shakes made with water x3 to equal 90grams make sure there is less than 6 grams of cabs.
*Clear liquids: broth, juice 50/50 with water (there is a new Ocean Spray drink that has less than 5 carbs per serving and is alright so, you don't have to dilute it),
*Sugar Free Popsicles, Sugar Free Jell-o
**Supplements start here too
1,500 mg of liquid Calcium (Costco)
3 children's chewable vitamins; Flintstones.
(Because my labs came back I also started b-12 injections that I do at home once every 2 weeks and Vit D that I chew the liquid out (pre surg you can swallow the pill.
Post-OP ***No caffien and no soda the carbonation can stretch the pouch and then it can bloat and be very painfull (I had a friend who suffered becasue, she tried)
One week clear liquids (same as above)only try and get in 80 ounces My r. as me us 1ounce cups 10 at a time to help get it in and counted. and supplements
Supplements change to
4,500 mg of Calcium and
4 children's chewable vitamins
Week Two Post-op
Same supplements, same clear liquids and
x2 protein shakes (60mg protein) made with only 3.5-4oz. of water. But, you can't drink anything 90 minutes prior to or after the shake. He said to absolutely not drink any pre-made ones, they have to much fluid in them.
*Continue to try and drink 3 liters of water but, really there is no time for that I'm just trying to do my best.
Week 3
Same as week 2 except you can have two ounces of pureed food (no drink 90 minutes before or after these either)
I haven't gone past this week mentally but as I get there I will let you know. In the next day or so, I will scan everything for weeks 4-9 and send them to you but I hope this is a good start.
GOOD LUCK Alanee
