Liquid diet day one pre op



Recommended Posts

I'm very nervous and questioning rather or not I can do this. After tonight I am on liquids only for the next four weeks. Right now it seems impossible to me, but I have no choice. How am I going to get through. ????

WOW....4 weeks! I had to do 2 weeks and I am not going to lie, it sucked. The hardest part of the journey in my opinion. Looking back now, I still can't believe I did it, but I did and I lost 10 pounds in 14 days.

The first 3-5 days are the hardest and then after you detox off of sugar and carbs it gets easier. I drank a lot of Vitamin Water Zero to keep me going and the electrolytes and Vitamins helped the fatigue and headaches. Piping hot chicken broth sipped out of a mug was somewhat satisfying when I got tired of the sweet sugar free dinks.

YOU CAN DO IT!!!

Oooooh, totally different post op, for me anyway. I had no real hunger or desire to eat for at least a week post op. Getting your Water in will be your top priority and with the tiny sips you are going to be taking, you will be sipping all day long.

sugar free ice pops and italian ice were both great post op because you sort of chewed something.

Good luck....before you know it, it will be a memory.

Ok so it's 5:48 and I've been on a liquid diet for almost a whole day, I haven't choked anyone or kicked any small animals.. It's hard, but not like I thought it would be... SO FAR.... I keep telling myself I can do this and I'm strong enough .!! So that's where im at.!

I'm on liquid day 3 pre-op. Day 1 was hard. I took lots of tylonal and ate lots of Jello. It's my 5 calorie wonder food. Keep it up it gets easier

I'm on day 6 pre op. I promise you it gets better. I have to remind myself to have a shake now. Truly am not hungry. So different than the first two days!

      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.

      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!!
