Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet....



Recommended Posts

Yeah, I'm under 600 calories a day and at the point where I don't care if I have the meal or not but like everything else it depends on the Doctor and I'm pretty sure my being a diabetic is another reason

It is rough, but honestly, probably the hardest part of the whole process for me! Just remember how much it sucks to go through the sugar/carb withdraw so you are not tempted to let them back in later and have to go through that again! Hang in there!

I started my liquid diet the same day as you! My surgeon is super strict with it as well, I can only have the shakes, sf Jello and Popsicles! It sucks!!! It totally "crashed" my immune system too and I had to call in to work yesterday with a flu bug! When is your surgery supposed to be? Mine is scheduled for the 16th!

I start my pre-op liquid diet Monday and I can have 3 shakes and a small meal the first week or 5 shakes and then the second week its 5 shakes up to the day before then its Clear liquids. This is the part of this process that I'm dreading the most.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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?

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
