Kmashtare reacted to JessLess in I cheated on my preop diet. I need some advice.I was allowed either 2 protein shakes and a lean cuisine type meal, or 1 shake and 2 lean cuisines up until, I think, the day before. Just get back on the horse, I think you'll be fine.

Kmashtare reacted to NovaLuna in I cheated on my preop diet. I need some advice.Every program has a different pre-op diet. My surgeons pre-op diet wasn't strictly liquid and we were told to have 6-8oz of protein a day (i.e. meat). We were told to have two healthy fats, up to 6oz of dairy (but it'd be included in our protein if we did so), a half cup of fruit and all the veggies we wanted. I still lost 15 pound on the pre-op diet and my surgeon said my liver looked great so... I think you'll be fine. Just try not to stray from your surgeons guidelines anymore.

Kmashtare reacted to gtotheb in I cheated on my preop diet. I need some advice.Hi there! I have been having 1/4 cup of plain chicken breast a few times a week on the liquid diet. It’s pure protein and I know will get me into Ketosis to shrink my liver. Now that I’m 3 days out I’m sticking to liquids so my stomach is clear. I’m looking forward to the surgery!!!

Kmashtare reacted to smg in Started preop diet today - any advice?Every time you start to feel overwhelmed, stop, take a deep breath, close your eyes and imagine your life at a healthier weight. What are the things you want to do that you just simply can't at the moment. Imagine yourself doing those things. Drink water right at the time of the urge.
Those urges are moments, and all moments pass. Stay positive and keep your eye on the prize!
