Recommended Posts

I was hangriest the 2nd & 3rd day. Just keep drinking, it sucks but it helps. Good Luck. And it's totally worth it :)

I thought if a dr required liquid diet it would be a few days not two weeks. What's up with that??/

Many doctors require a liquid diet that includes Protein drinks for 1-2 weeks pre-op, then a clear liquid diet for 1-2 days pre-op.

It's day one for me and so far i'm not hungry. Just more nauseous because EVERYTHING is so sweet.

I'm on day 12 of 14. I think what helped me a ton was drinking a ton of Water (I add the crystal light lemonade packets). This really kept me "full". I'm down 14lbs which I think has helped motivate me! I'm hoping to hit the 15 pound mark (I had a weight stall when I hit 12 lbs for 2 days).

Well done everyone on your pre-ops!! Aside from the liver shrinkage, it's hard now to see how important the pre-op is psychologically, but you will once you're on the other side and look back on it!

So keep fighting the good fight! You're off to a fantastic start to your healthy lifestyle post-op!

I just finished day one of a 7 day pre op diet, and I have to say I'm worried! I did not tolerate the Protein Shakes well at all, felt sick all day. As soon as it would start to pass I would try to get some more in and it would start all over again! Anyone else having this type of issue? Does it subside? I'm determined to make this!

Try a different shake, have you try the Unjury one? Or I use the trader joe they come on a can and they are good with 35gr Protein.

I did pure liquids yesterday but for dinner I had the best grilled chicken salad I've had in a long time. It was from steak and shake.

I found that some shakes upset my stomach while others didn't. I would try another brand.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
