I am going to purchase unflavored Protein Powder. You could try getting some and putting in yogurt?

I am on the liquid preop diet. I just started my fit pal but my intake is something like this:

4 Protein shakes with un sweetened Almond Milk

2-4 sugar free Jello

1 sugar free Popsicle

At least 80-100 ounces of Water

I should mention that I am on day 5 of my 14 day preop, I will be sleeved on July 31st.

Just from my research I think you need more Protein. I am still on preop diet by my post op in the maintenance stage says 50-65 grams of Protein. I know low protein will cause hair to thin.

No' date=' I also did some Isopure, unflavored Protein powder mixed in clears, Jello, etc. but the broth tasted most like real food.[/quote']

I was told on the full liquids that I could do stuff like thinned out Soups and yogurt as well... Thanks for responding, I am 10 days till surgery and so excited. Really inspired by everyone on this site.. Thanks

I'm from Houston & live in Houston near downtown. I'm having my surgery hopefully in August with Dr.Scarborough I'm doing my weight management classes right now. Has anyone had there sleeve with him? I'm really excited and nervous lol.

My surgeon is Dr. Yu, he is in the same office as Scarborough. I will get sleeved July 31st... Super excited and nervous

I'm in Kingwood. I'm two months post op and FINALLY starting to feel good. I had some complications from a stomach virus at three weeks but I'm getting on track.

I am in Kingwood, I will be sleeved on July 31st. How is your weight lose coming? Who was your surgeon?

Is that all your doing on the full liquid?

What I have discovered is that everything is sweet. The shakes' date=' sugar free Popsicles even the liquid pain killer. Sweet, sweet, sweet. I was so happy to have cream of chicken Soup. I couldn't eat much that is for sure but it was just so nice to have something other than sweet. I am ordering the unjury chicken soup Monday.[/quote']

Is the Unjury chicken soup broth? I am struggling with variety now because I can't stomach broth!?!?

I am still on my pre op 2 week liquid diet and have 10 days to go. However I like to plan ahead and I want to have everything ready for when I return home. I have 2 days of clear liquid (day of surgery and day after) then days 3-15 are "full liquid". Any suggestions for full liquid. These shakes aren't wonderful but it's definitely mind over matter

Thanks for the help!!!

Time is ticking slow in Texas...

Thanks twinzrule. I also have twins but they are 3. My husband and I both work full time and the girls are at a full time church pre school. So during the week while I am recovering they will be at school. I am glad to hear the pain wasn't near the c section. Thanks again.

I am having my VSG on July 31st. I feel like I have a pretty high pain tolerance level. However I am curious to know what the pain after surgery was like for everyone else? I have had 2 c-sections and wanted to try and compare to that. Thanks!!!

12 days to go...

Thanks my postoperative diet is 2 days clear liquids then days 3-15 full liquid. Days 16-30 puréed foods and transition to soft then normal food.< /p>

Lizcalle who is your doctor?

My date is July 31st and I am so ready. The pre op diet is tough but I think my mind set is, Lets do this! I have a very supportive husband and 3 kids that don't really know what is going on!!! I am so excited, I can hardly wait!!! I am a little nervous of being off work for 13 days then getting thrown back in, in the swing of things!

Thanks! I think I just need other people that know what I am going through to say it's gonna be okay

I have my surgery scheduled for July 31st. I am currently on day 3 of my 2 week liquid pre op diet. I am taking in 100 ounces of Water, 4 Protein Shakes a day and about 3 sugar free jellos. I don't like broth so that is out of the question. Any other ideas for something I can have? I am in countdown mode but so hungry, will this feeling ever go away?

Hungry in Houston!!!!
