Praying for everyone tomorrow! What time are you all scheduled for? I'm scheduled for 10 am

I'm scheduled for 7:15am

I'm scheduled for the 30th!!

I'm on day ten of my liquid diet, the first two were def the hardest. My doc says nothing about calories, but more about Protein between 60-70 grams of protein per day, broth, SF Jello, SF freeze pops, SF hot chocolate, healthy choice strained cream of mushroom and chicken Soups.< /p>

I've found that when I add no flavor Proteins to the soups they are good, I've also found that vanilla and chocolate protein (from unjury) with fair life skim milk is a delicious smoothie, the strawberry banana muscle milks are good, I also can have light m fit yogurt with no chunks, I change those up. I enjoy the flavored water that you can buy at any store. My choices are limited yes, but I am down 14 lbs!!

I actually feel healthy and stronger than ever ... Already!!

Good luck!!!

I wish I could have things like that, but my surgeon requires nutrimed. It's prepackaged foods/ shakes that I have to eat. Good luck tomorrow!!!

Your lucky you get solids, I'm on only liquids for 10 days. I'm struggling

Well most of mine is Protein shakes. The only "solid" foods are chili and pudding...

Is the purpose of your diet to shrink your liver?

I'm having such a hard time, I keep throwing up my Protein Shakes. I've noticed a lot of other pre op diets include a few ounces of lean meat in the evening.

Yeah he said it didn't matter if I lost weight it was just strictly to shrink my liver, but I'm on day three and have already lost 14 pounds.

I am scheduled for the VSG on November 30th and started my pre-op diet this past Monday (11/16) and I am getting extremely anxious.

I have a couple of questions for anyone who might be able to shed some light....

What did you do to curb the hunger while being on the pre-op diet? I'm only eating around 600 calories a day and I feel like I'm starving all the time!!

What do I need to pack to take with me to the hospital?

Sorry for the random post but I just want to make sure I am prepared for everything!

Thanks so much!!
