You know you're on the Pre-op diet when...

I'm actually starting to think those 300cal microwave meals are kinda filling. (Im not on liquid only).

And I did lick the salt off a cracker last night.

I was drinking just Water for the first 3 days and then I realized that we had crystal light. Crystal light is the most delicious tasting drink after 3 days of plain water. I am day 7 of my diet and I am not super hungry anymore. It feels weird to say that knowing 1000 calories a day is not many for the average person.

My Dr said I am not required to do a pre-op diet but I plan on doing it for the 2 or 3 days prior to surgery just to clean myself out. So much for taking advantage of the all inclusive resort! LOL

I'm sure I will be ready to lick a cow after just a couple of days!!!

Omg...this made laugh. I had dreams of chewing food last night. I am not hungry, just wanting something to munch on. Was at the grocery store the other day helping my Mom and walked by hotdogs and instantly wanted one. I hate hotdogs, haven't had one in years. But there I was, staring at the hotdogs drooling. Smh.

My dr wants me to do 2 Protein replacement meal with one solid meal of protein and veggies for two weeks. 2nd day and starving. Does it get any easier? I also hope I don't have this starving feeling after my surgery on the 4th of Nov.

Haha... I felt like that about my GasX tablet... Kinds looked forward to it. I had 10 days of Clear Liquids, which was tough. It's hard but just hang in there! Now I am completely relieved one week out because I can have yogurt, Protein Shakes, and creamy Soup. I let the soup cool down a bit and add unflavored Syntrax Protein Powder. Doesn't change the taste at at!.

Yeah, lets try to avoid the grocery store during the pre op diet. That's all bad.

Yes it does get easier, I'm on day 5, feeling great. Not hungry. Nerves are a little fried but other than that dieters beeotchiness I'm fine. I am definetley avoiding looking at the food signs today. It's the Devil testing me! Lol

      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! 😞
