My surgeon requires 3 weeks of protein shakes and crystal light. Supposed to get 80-120 grams of protein per day. They say no to everything else. Just left the office from my first weigh in pre surgery. Finished my first week of no food, two more to go... this is tough! I definitely agree, more stressed about the pre surgery diet than the surgery its self. After surgery our stomachs will be smaller and we will not be so HUNGRY.
3 weeks liquid Protein shakes...... one week down, two to go. I had already lost around 18 pounds before starting the preop diet. 9 pounds in the past week. Already hit my pre surgery weight loss goal set by surgeon.
My surgery date is April 4th! Excited and a little nervous, mostly excited I must say I am struggling a little trying to get through the 3 weeks of protein shakes and Water & crystal light.... Any suggestions to help make it the next 2 weeks????
