Trouble With Pre Op Diet



Recommended Posts

I've been on 4 shakes a day plus broth and Jello for ten days and my stomach is constantly growling!

I've been dreaming about food almost every time I close my eyes! A recurring theme seems to be meatballs! LOL!

Krista our surgery is the same day. When I was told I could have vegetables I was so happy. I'm really not a veggie eater which isn't good but I sure do love them now. Lol. I feel for you. How many days do you have to do the pre op diet. I only have to do it for two weeks.

Lucky you. I have do to 28 days diet then 2 days clear liquid only.

My surgery went well. I'm a little sore that's about all. I'm on the clear liquid diet which I'm tolerating well. I ended up getting a cold and had an allergic reaction to something all of this at the hospital. I came home sicker then when I went in. Lol. Otherwise I'm doing great. Just following the doctors orders. Also walking as much as I can. The doctor said this helps keep the lungs functioning properly and will help relieve some of the soreness. So far so good!

I cheated. I had to be on 15 day liquid diet and couldn't stand it at like 3 points during those 2 weeks I cheated and had a grilled chicken breast and even some chocolate on Easter. Now i'm 10 days post op and just fine :)

Hi Vamp!

Did you have trouble at first getting everything in right after surgery? If I drink one more thing, I think I 'll pop!

      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! 😞
