Hello I was wondering If anyone has October Surgery dates and how are you feeling about it being right around the corner and how are u spendng your time now that the hard part is over ur approved and have your date

I'm on a liquid diet

Sorry accidentally sent before I finished I'm on a low carb liquid diet 70 grams of protein or more and less than 30 grams carbs I'm supposed to drink 5 Atkins shakes to hit my protein goals as they have 15 grams of protein each and between 2 to 5 grams carbs each I am also allowed sf jello and broth lately I've only been getting in 2-3 shakes a day

Thank you for your replies! I have been researching it and it looks like every surgeon is a little diff.. but I didn't know if you could have soups, or a sensible dinner? But looks like ALL liquid. will be a good jump start on post op diet and weight loss! Good luck to all the oct surgeries! I'm hoping for my surgery date today.. can't wait!!

Liz.. what is your preop diet? They told me I will have to drink shakes' date=' but that's it..is that the whole diet? Can't eat anything?[/quote']

Im on a liquid diet for 4 weeks and im 9 days in. Im on 7 supplements a day which can be soup, shake, or bars. I can eat a total of 1 cup of cucumbers, any bell pepper or lettice & celery, I also can have 1c sf jello, unlimited sf popsicles, unlimited diet decaffeinated pop, tea and decaffeinated coffee. I have to get in at least 64 ounces of fluids a day, everything I drink counts as the 64 oz except caffeinated beverages. However much caffeinated beverages I drink I have to replace it with water. I can have sf mints and gum.

I start my pre-op diet on Oct 1st... consists of protein shakes, broth, SF jello, SF popsicles, clear liquids. Suppose to make sure I get down 64oz of fluids a day. It is an all clear liquid diet.

So do you have to continue on liquid? That is my biggest fair, have to be reschedule.

Oh yah I'm down 15lbs since starting my liquid diet

Yep liquid diet for forever! Yay(total sarcasm)

Although I'm supposed to be on a full liquid diet I let myself have a cup of hot and sour soup to reward myself for putting up with my drs offices ineptitude and not having a meltdown/yell at them

I haven't received a surgery date yet. But I am calling them tomorrow to see if we can fast track this as my husband can get laid of any day now and I am not sure if I will have insurance. The 24th of this month is last weigh in its just the psych evaluation that will be holding things up it is scheduled for October 3rd and it takes months to get an appointment with her so no upping it
