Any 4th November sleevers? pre-op diet!



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm super happy, yesterday I got my date. 4th November! :D

Is a 3 years story behind from initial rejected by local hospital, to "I don't want to do operation, to "I will do private and pay myself" to "ok, I will do the all pre-op path and see fi I get approval". I did! And have now a date!

Now, in first appointments, I was told I need to loose 6 kilos before operation. That was long ago. I gained another 2 kilos. So, total, I need to loose 8 Kilos in 6 weeks ( will do also the 2 weeks pre-op only liquids).

Any tips out there to loose this weight? And anyone has same date?

Thank you!

November 2nd for me! Started the pre-op diet for Sept 29 but it was moved back. When I started pre-op Southbeach plan, i lost 5lbs in under a week. It can be done! Good luck!

Wow, that's awesome!!! That's like 11 pounds right? Wow bravo, way to go!!! I'm still at 5lb's, a little over 2kg I think, but I've added fruit back in and I walked over 16,000 steps today so I'll take comfort in that :).

How are you doing it?

I am a November 4th Sleever as well; glad to see another person with the same date!

I was advised by my nutritionist to try the Liver Shrinking diet as a test, and I lost 8 lbs in a week just trying it out. It is very possible.

The diet plan she gave me includes:

2 Protein shakes (Under 200 calories, under 12 carbs, up to 5 grams of fat, and up to 35 grams of protein)

1 meal (palm size Protein, and three handfuls of veggies or one handful of fruit)

2 protein servings for Snacks (cheese, hummus, chicken, turkey, yogurt, nuts, and you can add celery or lettuce to these)

It works for me when I mix it up, having my meals as a protein snack, and the shakes in between with my main meal being a lunch. I feel this plan will help me get used to the new lifestyle. It actually is more food then you think.

Hope this helps!

Hi Ellie I think is around 6 pounds.. So still a lot to go. You are doing great! 5lbs is very good! I'm basically eating likely around 1000 calories a day ( no carbs ) and increased my daily Water (have to force it as was never my thing..). I'm also drinking gember thee (home made). Very efficiënt! I'm still stress about loosing the weight pre-op. If is not what they established for me they send me Back home.. All the best and best wishes from Amsterdam!

I lost 6 lbs in one week. I drank lots of Water. I had coffee and Creamer for Breakfast, slim fast shake for lunch, small portion of meat and veggies for dinner. A couple nights I drank broth and had no dinner. But that was hard to do. I got a little nervous that I wasn't going to meet my weight goal so I also took a laxative and Water pills. Good luck

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
