NUT?

Ok so I started a preop diet and have the choice of two shakes and a high protein diner or follow some examples of dinners and snacks. Question. If I am taking a shake in the morning and a shake in the afternoon then the dinner I am still feeling really hungry. Is there any fat free and still shrink my liver snacks I could try?

Derby here and I just started preop diet also. Confused though cause I dont have a date. I think they are trying to schedule mid april.

Thanks everyone learning how not to cook "fast food" lol. This is a good change though

I'm on my pre op diet and have opted for Breakfast Shake, Lunch Shake, and a high protein low fat diet. I bought a piece of Pork Tenderloin and was wondering if anyone knew any tasty recipes without ruining my liver shrink diet?

Tasted good to me and I am a very picky eater

I was experimenting this morning and decided to mix a scoop of chocolate pure protein with 8 oz. of black coffee. I was surprised how tasty it was.

I ended up getting the chocolate pure protein powder. Ill know in the morning how I like it

Lean and green?

Thank you, I just posted about the preop diet can you give me any pointers?

I am starting my preop diet tomorrow and I was given two choices. A. Follow the diet they give me which is protein and low fat options. B. Shake for morning shake for lunch and a high protein low fat for dinner. I am leaning towards the shakes because I read that you can lose more weight and it is just easier for me. Wanted to see others inputs on here that have either gone through it or are going through it now. Also I would liek to have some recommendations on what shakes are good and which are bad taste wise and quality and price. Thanks Everyone

Holy crap my patience is shot. Went to my nutrition class today and it looks as though I will be in the next two to three weeks becoming a true sleever. Cant wait to get mt life back on track. Start my preop diet tomorow. Booyah lets go!!!!!!!

I just realized that I screwed up this week. I made a mistake im sure many have made of "ill eat whatever I want cause after surgery it wont matter". Feel like crap now. I have my last nutrition class tonight and I start my pre op diet soon. Maybe ill just do it from tomorrow on and get with the program. Anyone else go through this. I was told that I will be looking at the second week of April but I moght get in sooner if there is a cancellation. Just want to get this going.

How the hell am I a advanced member lol. This is gonna be the longest few weeks I couod tell all ready and im out on comp so I get to sit at home and wonder about it too while trying not to graze and snack all day.....ugh lord help me

Berrie I feel the same way

How do I feel or were you talking to someone else. Im confused lol

My final insurance was set today and my contact says my insirance only takes a day or two so hopefully in the next few weeks. (Fingers crossed)

I fear that may have come out wrong I feel like I should explain. I LOVE Griffin hospital. That's the only downfall of getting the surgery done at Rays. I had attended his seminar at St. Vincent's and personally having a medical background I did not feel comfortable with the answers I was getting. I was referred to my doctor by several people that used him in the past. I didn't mean to sound nasty I hope I didn't come across that way. And hey we will hopefully be around the same time having surgery so we could go through together

My mother always told me if I didnt have anything nice to say then dont say it all. I will wish you good luck though. We will have to share stories in our journey

Great good luck I lost 17lbs on that damn ketosis crap lol. I cant wait to get my life back

Is that with Erlich?

Oh man that is a bummer I thought that the pre op diet was basically liquids.

Ok cool I wasnt sure because of the time involved if they would have to intubate or not. Drains made me a bit nervous but hey we shall cross that bridge when I get to it right? How was the preop diet? Some people say its tough although I thought the ketosis diet was terrible enough so I figure that was the hardest part.

Did they have to intubate you? Did you need drains?
