Starting my liquid diet today. Help?



Recommended Posts

Hello wonderful people....today I am starting my liquid diet. I am scheduled for the 29th of august. My surgeon requires that I lose or maintain my current weight but from what I have been reading I decided to take it upon myself to lose some visceral fat, especially around my liver. I have two cartons of chicken broth and have no clue what I'm doing. What were your liquid diets like?

Did you receive a nutrition guide from your surgeon's office?

This is what is on my list for the pre-op liquid phase, but every surgeon is different. May be worth a call to the office!

Pre-op Liquid Phase (2 weeks prior to surgery)

Water

Decaf Coffee/Tea

SF Jello

SF Popsicles

broth

1% Skim Milk

LF Cottage cheese

Light (RedCal) Yogurt

Low Carb Protein shakes

SF pudding

No sugar added fudgesicles

No sugar added hot choc

LF Creamy Soups (strained)

Tomato Soup

Unsweetened applesauce

Cream of wheat/oatmeal or grits (1x per day)

My pre-op diet was 2 Protein shakes and a healthy meal every day. Even with the one meal, that was a very tough 2 weeks. Good luck!

This is good. Much better than what they gave me.

      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! 😞
