Did your nutritionist suggest anything? What type of diet are you on? Different doctors use different pre-op diets. For example, some require no dieting and others require three weeks of dieting. Some require liquids only and others allow some meals.

My Dr. has me on Protein low carb diet the two weeks before surgery. They should tell you soon what they want you to eat on your pre op diet. Good luck. My surgery is the 17th. I am so excited!

someone wrote they take lemon juice and warm Water before bed and when they wake up. Not sure if that helps or not. I'm on week one of my two week diet and I haven't lost any weight yet :( my surgery is also on the 17th. Might try a liquid diet next week.

I liked Fage plain Greek yogurt. It is high in Protein and counts as a liquid, too. It tastes like sour cream, though, so it is not to everyone's taste.

Hi, we are having our surgery the same day. I had a pre op class and the dietician went over everything and gave us paperwork on what to eat. And we received info on what to do after surgery. How is it going?

I don't recall but I will ask the PA tomorrow. Im the only patient having surgery that day. My surgeon usually do surgeries on Monday's but if there are quite a few patients he will do 1 on Tuesday's.

th.Well had my surgery this past Monday the 17th. I was wondering how your surgeries all went? I had lost 9 pounds when I went for surgery. I can't wait to see how much I have lost for the first 2 week checkup! Hope all is well with you.

My first week I lost 13 lbs.. My diet is pretty the much the same as yours. I am amazed at how fast I get full when taking about 3 bites of Soup. I really noticed today how much I am losing. I wore a pair of pants that I hadn't had on since back in the spring. They were really loose. Hope you week is going well. D

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
