Pre-Op Liquid Diet... Does it get easier?



Recommended Posts

Yay!! I've got less than a week. I'm on day 8 and I'm sleepier and moodier than ever, lol. But, I'm trying to stay positive and trying to refrain from eating a slice of my coworkers' birthday cake, lol! We can do this!!! I know it! We're too close now to give up. Just think, in just a short time we will be sexier and healthier than ever! ;)

Andrea, you aren't allowed to say C-A-K-E. Lol. Haha a co-worker today was sitting at her desk eating honeycomb Cereal.. She didn't even know she was in danger! :-p Today is Day 8 here as well and I will say it's been much better. I am very sleepy as well though. So glad surgery is less than a week away! :-)

Day 7 for me, searched Pinterest for recipes for different shakes, so I am having a different flavour for each meal.

That's a great idea! I have been using PB2 in some of mine, makes it so much better!

Thank you @@KristenLe - it could be. I am very leary to take anything even if over the counter, I had a reaction to prescribed medication back in December and it has turned my life upside down and caused an enormous amount of health problems which is what actually led me here. I am still not back to myself. So I will just drink some black coffee and hope it goes away. That is a possibility though. It is pouring rain here this morning.

Awe, I hope the 6 months passes quickly! It seems so long!

Hey! I noticed you said that a prescription turned your life upside down and led you to this forum. Was the medication a steroid? I'm asking because, a steroid brought me here, too. They made my knees feel like they were breaking, made my face huge, and made me gain 50 pounds in 3 months. It was awful.

I start my liquid diet Tommorrow my surgery is scheduled for August 16 and I still have 3 lbs to lose by aug11 I'm worried I won't lose it

3 pounds by August 11th should be extremely easy to achieve, especially while on the liquid diet. I'm 90% sure you will lose even more than that. I lost 2 pounds on my first day of the liquid diet. Good luck! And please tell me how it goes. If you're struggling with this liquid diet, send me a message and vent. Venting definitely helps. And I'm more than willing to listen. :)

      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?

      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
