I've spent the last few days doing 2 shakes and a meal hopefully I'll be okay. Good luck everyone

I watched carbs and sugar because I was told those were the main thing to be concerned about.

I had a Protein shake for Breakfast and I had other drinks throughout the day and I had Soup for dinner.... I always had veggies during my pre-op diet except for the last day when I was on clear fluids only.

My surgeon said everything looked great and my surgery was perfect. I even managed to lose 9 pounds during my pre-op diet.

day 1 pre op diet

I feel pretty good but I didn't get anywhere near 1000 calories I'm only at 725 and the only other thing I might have tonight is a couple 10 calorie drop ins in my Water to get the rest of my water in and a 15 calorie popsicle idk if that's good or bad but I did get all of my Protein in

I'm scheduled for the 25th as well...let's just say my pre-op diet is not going well at all. It seems as if I'm obsessing about food now. This is horrible!!!

Yesterday was rough for me still didn't feel fatigued or headaches or anything but I was STARVING

My first day on the pre-op diet was a disaster. I may have ended up eating endless shrimp at Red Lobster. I think it's so difficult because it's mental. Soon we won't be able to eat more than a spoon or two of food and the urge to live it up is strong with me.

Today is a new day and I'm on track with my Protein shakes and I get a lean meal for dinner.

P.S. My surgery is the 24th.

Ah yes, I infamous pre op diet. It gets easier the further out you are. I remember in the first few days I slipped and had something I was not suppose to have. Don't beat yourself if you though. It will be over before you know it.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
