I start my pre op diet tomorrow for two weeks. Any suggestions for when you come across the hard times. I will not cheat at all it's not worth it to me. I will follow what the drs say to a T. But just wondering anything that really helped any of you through it!!!??? I can have no food at all just liquids.

I got so sick of the sweet cloying taste of the shakes, Jello and popsicles. When I talked to my bariatric team they suggested making some homemade fresh chicken broth. Not the canned stuff.....

If it were not for that, I dont think I would survive. I sipped on it alot pre op and definately post op.

i made some yesterday was so good was tired of sweetness. Lol

Really getting tired of the shakes already not the hunger part I can cope with that it's the shakes are making sick to my stomach it took me four hours to talk myself into my lunch one and by then it was soon time for the dinner one. Gunna have to buy plain Protein mix and put it in broth or something.

sugar free Jello and broth seemed to be it for me. The jello I think helped because it was like eating solid food and was more satisfying.
