I can have 4-5 Protein drinks a day ' date=' plus 1 meal of 4-5 oz lean meat ( not fried) and 1 cup of none starchy veggies. It really hasn't been to bad. I've still got two days until surgery day, and so far I've lost 11 pounds. Not to shabby for just two weeks![/quote']

I have to do the same diet starting tomorrow for 1 week and clear liquid only the day before!

@rockdutches82 it's okay. I had a whole meal on day 5 of my 'all liquid' diet. I would advise staying away from outside functions while doing this cause it makes it harder . My cousin advised if I had to have it to bite it, chew it and spit it out. (Easier said than done but good advise)

My pre-op diet will be 2 weeks of this, basically. Lean protein...fish, chicken, etc., lots of veggies, and < 20 carbs a day. I'm trying to shift over to that before the 2 weeks begins, just so it's not a shock to the system.

Has anyone NOT had to follow a pre op diet? I was told "not to gain any weight" and just eat sensibly. I am a little worried about it. I don't wants liver to be in the way.

I'm doing a 1 week high Protein

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
