Starting Pre-op Diet

Hello everyone!

So I've been away awhile as I was on vacation in the Dominican Republic...woo hoo! But I'm back and starting my two week liquid diet. I'm drinking the Met-Rx in Original vanilla. And to be honest, I'm having a little trouble getting it down. It's just very thick and I'm trying not to psych myself out. I mixed it with Water and used my Blender Bottle. The upside is that I'm not the least bit hungry. And I feel really good. I'm starting to write everything down because I want to get in the habit of keeping track of things. I'm going to do 20 minutes on the elliptical. I heard that exercising beforehand helps with the healing process.

Tomorrow, I have an appointment with my surgeon to go over the finer points.I have a few things I have to discuss with him. Namely, I want to see what he suggests for Protein intake and Vitamin regimens, etc. I guess, I want to see how all my January newbies are doing.

Best,

Dania

  • I found that sometime my shake mix can get thick and I do not like that either so I just add a little more water and it thins out and makes it more enjoyable plus gives me more fluids.

Yeah, I'm on my second of four. I'm definitely going a little slow, but I think today is my learning curve. I'm going to get my mixing just right and I think I'm going to make my first shake earlier so I'm drinking it while I'm driving in.

Quick question: I drank a cup of green tea. I usually average one or two a day. I don't drink coffee and I don't drink soda so that's the only caffeine I have. i don't add milk or sugar. I wonder if that's okay?
