Pre and Post Diet? Whats everyone eating?



Recommended Posts

I am on the 2 week Pre Diet and doing 2 shakes and 1 meal a day. Honestly I am doing better than I thought I would. My only real cheat is that my dinner is low carb but not a salad. I am mostly meat and cheese. I already feel a little better!!

I found an oatmeal that has helped and i can also eat Post during mushy stage. It has been a lifesaver from just shakes. 100 cal 14g Protein 1g fat and 8 carbs. Profast apple and cinnamon the taste is pretty good.

What products have others found we should know about.

I've been going round and round in my head about my pre-op diet. It does not feel like a diet to me when I see it on paper. Just 19 instructions such as no fast/fried food, no sugar, no sugar drinks, no carbonated beverages, protien first, reduce/eliminate caffiene, lots of Water... etc. Feels more like every other diet I've failed than a pre-op diet. I asked my Doctor THREE times to verify what I should be doing pre-op as a very high BMI patient and all three times this was reiterated until I reach 3 days to surgery and it changes to predominantly liquids.

All that said, I do not trust myself so I've beein doing HMR shakes 3-4 a day, some fruit and veg and a low fat/low carb dinner. Just yesterday I switched to HMR heat/eat box meals for dinner too since I don't trust myself to cook properly.

I have HMR oatmeal on standby if I get into a space where I cannot stand myself, but I'm trying hard to avoid it because I don't want it to trigger a binge.

Weighed in yesterday, 9lbs down from where I was at my weigh in during November. May not seem like much, but I KNOW I gained during Christmas so I'll take it as a small victory.

I got it at a diet doctor metabolic medical centers but you can buy if from meat as well.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
