You were allowed carrots?!

First week of mien was milk milk and more milk 4pints a day I rang them and asked if I could eat a couple of sticks of cucumber I got told NO!

I badly wanted something crunchy I was craving apples true fully but wasn’t allowed it lol

I cheated in my first week but I was also really sick on the milk diet in the end so bad infact I was taken off the milk diet and switched to a food diet which was fine my second week I was good and never strayed from my diet.

Wow, my dr told me no milk. I guess every one is different.

Here you have a choice of 3 pre op diets:

5 ready to drink slimfast 5 bottles a day and 1 salty drink and Water.

Or

4pints of semi skimmed milk a day plus a salty drink and Water.< /p>

Or

A food diet they give you the what you eat for each meal like 2 lots of Protein no carbs and fruit/veg 2 lots of carbs 1 Protein 1 veg etc and list the amounts your allowed and whats in each section like 8 cherry tomatoes is one portion on the fruit/veg section.

I picked milk being that it to me was the easiest to do and cheapest, well as I don’t drink milk everrrrrrrr don’t do milkshakes hot chocolate hardy drank one cup of tea in 3 months didn’t do much dairy I didn’t know I was actually lactose intolerant so as the days went by and I kept on doing 4 pints of milk a day I was getting sicker and sicker and in more and more pain till after 5 days my mum kept telling me if you want to go to ER I will take you she thought it was a appendicitis I knew it wasn’t that low it actually felt like gallbladder pains but mine was removed years ago lol

So when I spoke to them day 6 told them whats going on I was told to stop drinking milk right away and switch to the food as I am lactose intolerant and all that will do if I keep on is make me sick and could jeopardise the op because there is not telling what is going on inside me with me drinking the milk.

So yeah that’s our choices in the uk and let me tell you food is soooooooo much easier to do I didn’t mind the milk I never felt hungry but its boring compared to the food and you feel normal on the food too lol

My 2 week pre-op diet is to replace two meals with Protein Shakes (so i chose muscle milk). And have one meal including 6-8 oz lean Protein, 1 cup veggies (green), and 1 cup fruit. No bananas, carrots, or potatoes. May have sugar free popsicles or Jello. Today is day 4. Feeling great. No hunger at all. 8 lbs lost so far. Surgery date is sept 14

I was told to do a liquid diet for the simple fact of preventing a fatty liver but the emphasis was put on two days before the surgery after taking magnesium citrate and Clear Liquids like Water, broth, crystal light and sugar free popsicles

      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.

        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!
