Looking for tips to help with pre op diet. Im going to be doing Optifast shakes and bars...

Already read a few from a previous post, but I'm looking for suggestions to make the process a little more bearable. Thanks in advance!!

well i'm 3 days in. I don't get the bars, I'm a liquid only preop diet. So what's helped is tons of Water, any time I felt hungry I took a swig. Work goes ok since there's a lot to keep me busy. At home is another story. I opt for unjury chicken at night since it's different flavor from my morning and afternoon. Changes in temperature help too. I have tea (leaves brewed first to get rid of the caffeine) and then switch to cold water w/ mio or crystal light.

Jello hasn't really been all that spiffy. I opted out of that.

How long will you be on yours?

good luck!

9 days. Then two days of clear liquid before surgery. What's unjury chicken? Is it a broth? I heard broth is good but has to be really hot...

With noodles. KIDDING!

Unjury is just a chicken broth flavored protein mix

I heard lots of good things about the Unjury chicken. I ordered and it should be delivered today. Excited!! And I agree...the switch between broth and shakes helps a lot! First two days are the toughest. I experienced some major headaches. Keep busy and have support that will help keep your eye on the prize. A good friend has made sure when we hang out, nothing has to do with food or liquor. Also, I suggest fiber supplements. The protein shakes I'm drinking don't have much for fiber and I'm feeling a little stopped up. 8 lbs lost since Monday though! Good luck! ♡

And yah noodles a total must. hehe
