Hi all. On day 3 of my 10 day pre op diet!! So hungry and a little moody so yes I am HANGRY!!! Anyway. Wanted to know if I can have sugar free Popsicles? Dr is out of town for the holidays and I dont classify this as an emergency to call him. Was anyone allowed them?

Hi Tiff, I'm on my 2nd day of liquid diet (pre-surgery). I was very hangry 1st day, and a little better today. I've found it's best for me to stay away from smells of food, if possible. I'm trying to drink more Water today to help out. I've found I like the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein mixes best. I ordered them from internet. I only started with the sample packet before I started. Basically to find out which flavors I liked the best. They have a chicken flavored one and when it's added to warm Water (not hotter than 140 degrees) it taste like chicken Soup. My dr. lets me have unsweetened applesauce with artifical sweetner. I added a little cinamon to it tonight and enjoyed it. Hang in there and just remember the better we do with this liquid diet the less likely of complications with the surgery. We're getting that fatty liver shrunk so the surgeon can do an excellent job for us.!!!

I am 7 days into the pre-op diet, and it's definitely gotten easier the past couple of days. It was rough at first, but now I'm suddenly halfway there and it's smooth sailing.

My doc also encourages popsicles. So there's that.

Hang in there. It gets better!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
