Can I eat Ramen noodles on my pre op diet, I remember the nurse saying something about them but I don't remember what she said? Of course they're closed 2day, please help

I'm not sure what your doctor's pre-op diet is like, but I could only have shakes. The shakes could be with or without skim milk. That was the only flexibility I had.

Every doctor's preop diet is a bit different, but for most the point is to shrink the liver by cutting carbs... and noodles are very carby, so I wouldn't think so.

Best bet is to not have them today, and call in tomorrow. ;)

Ramen doesn't really have much to offer in the way of nutrition. The flavoring is often chock full of sodium and MSG. I'd try to find something a little healthier if at all possible.

Ramen noodles wouldn't be the best choice. I'm on day 3 of my pre op diet and have only felt hungry once.

Try a shake followed by a bottle of Water. Then have a creamy Soup later with a bottle of Water and Crystal light.

Eat some Greek yogurt and cottage cheese for Breakfast. There are several different options.

Try and hang in there - I know it's hard... I'm on day 2 of my Pre-op (3 shakes a day plus unlimited SF Popsicles, Jello and broth) and I want food, lol. So I keep drinking Water :) and lots of it ;) if you have to cheat from all liquids I would recommend some of the choices already mentioned like yogurt. You can do this!!! Just keep the end goal in mind :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
