Hi everyone! I'm scheduled to have my surgery on the 1st of July! Today I started my liquid diet and can already tell the massive emotional effects taking place! I'm pretty sure the caffine withdrawals have started as I have a bad headache! I just need to stay positive and look forward to the outcome! But deep down I wish these 2 weeks would be over and done with!! My dietician is allowing me to make my own chicken soup for dinner which I'm really happy about!

Started my pre op diet yesterday. So far so good!

Surgery on 6/28....hooray!!!!

Hello to all! My surgery is June 30 in Houston and today is my 4th day on my 14 day pre-op liquid diet...I'm already miserable! The sweet shakes are getting to me and I want something different. I tried the Unjury chicken soup and it was ok. My doctors office gave me 2 huge bags of Bariatric Advantage powders. But I like the ready to drink Atkins and Pure Protein much better. I emailed my NUT today and she is concerned that in order to get the amounts I need the Pure Protein is too much. It's 23 grams a can and 120 calories. They are requiring me to get in atleast 700 calories. My protein intake isn't the problem it's getting all the calories as well without having too much protein...any suggestions and anything else besides the sweet shakes? Thanks in advance ????

My 2 weeks was tough. But I lost 15 lbs so it was worth it

@@getnhealthyintx did you have to have atleast a certain number of calories to meet?

I'm doing fairly well on my protein but my nut says I need atleast 700 calories and that's what's hard for me

I'm on Day 5 and am becoming addicted to the Premier Protein ready-made shakes. Crystal Light Liquid is my other favorite to keep guzzling the water. I'm down 19.6lbs so it's worth it - go July 1st team, GO!
