I Hate my Pre-Op Diet!!



Recommended Posts

And the days are just dragging along. One week to go before my Band. I am ready to move over to the Post op questions and answers!

Sorry folks there is no real topic here. I am just venting because I am hungry! I never was good at not eating!!

No wonder I need WLS!

Sandy,

Hang in there it will all be worth it. You really shouldn't be hungry. Are you getting all the Protein in??? Let us know what you are eating so that others can help you.

I don't start my liquid diet until May 4th. I might even try (as much as I can go without eating real food) to start the week before that just so I can lose a few extra lbs. My pre-op diet consists of:

  • tomato or V8 juice (yuck)
  • cream of wheat or oatmeal (i only like oatmeal- peaches and cream)
  • SF pudding
  • SF Jello
  • Dannon light N fit yogurt
  • unsweetened applesauce (i like it sweet)
  • fat free raw veggies (not a fan of raw veggies)

I have to have 4 servings of my Protein shake daily. At least 6of these foods from the list.

This is gunna suck.

When I did my 10 day preop it was Protein Shakes only. You are lucky!

You guys are so lucky!!! I'm doing 2 weeks of only Protein shakes! I'm not allowed anything else besides chicken broth, crystal light, and sugar free Jello. I have to drink 4 shakes/day and it's getting old fast!

This is what my diet was, all liquid all the time!

Good luck to all of you. I know it sucks now but I promise you it's worth it in the end.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
