Never Started a Diet on a Friday



Recommended Posts

Well, I guess it is crunch time. My surgery is April 2nd and my 2 week pre-op diet starts to day. Through out my lifetime career of dieting, I have never started on a Friday.

My pre-op consist of 2 Protein Shakes, 4oz of meat and veggies. Gotta love it. I have had headaches the whole day but I am sure I will be OK. By the way the Unjury shakes taste pretty good. I tried the strawberry sherbet for Breakfast and chocolate for lunch. So far I am very impressed.

Good luck to you! I start my preop diet Sunday. Saturday is my grandkid's 6th birthday so for my last "fat picture" I am having my daughter take a picture of me stuffing my face with a piece of cake. I'm so excited and yet nervous. I guess thats how most people feel.

I don't know how to make the shakes yet, mix with some low fat milk or Water? Just seeing what all the options are.

Once again, good luck. See you on the skinny!!!:frown:

You can do it! I started my pre-op on a Friday as well, using the Unjury powder. It went very well for me so I am sure it will go well for you too! If you want to add a little something to the strawberry sorbet flavor I use 16 ounces fo Water, 2 scoops of unjury and 1 packet of crystal light lemonade--it tastes really good and really packs in the Protein.< /p>

I am thinking about you and offering up my support. My surgery is April 7 and I am counting down the days.

You will do great on the preop and the surgery. It will be worth it!

Come to think of it, I don't believe I ever started a diet on a Friday either! :frown: Good luck on your pre-op diet. I have been on mine for just over a week and my surgery is on 4/1... April is just around the corner for both of us!

You sound just like me. I started my pre-op on Friday and my surgery is also April 2nd. It wasn't so bad Friday but then yesterday, I wanted to eat everything in the grocery store. Today is a much better day. My doctor will allow one small salad tomorrow and I can't wait but I'm ok. Lots better than I thought I'd be. Good luck to you.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
