I plan on having surgery in the next 3-6 months hopefully. Did anybody start a special diet to prepare their bodies for a change ?

My dietitian recomended Protein Snacks every 3-4 hours, you may get used to small meals and loose some weight in the process

Each surgeon varies in what they require. Have you met with a surgeon? His/her team will help guide you.

My Dr required me to do a full liquid diet for 2 weeks. Was so very hard I won't lie to you . I cried every day for the first 3-4 days around supper time. Its really hard and takes a lot of will power. I'm 3 days post op I find it so much easier now with my small pouch ,good luck

I started trying different Protein shakes. You want like them all after surgery. I replaced them with Breakfast & my doc required me to have some weight loss monthly

I am also hoping to have surgery within the next six months! I meet with my dietitian and the surgeon in a week. I have started drinking a protein shake for breakfast and eating a protein bar between breakfast and lunch, I didn't eat in the mornings before so I started doing this to wake up my metabolism. Unfortunately (or possibly fortunately) my home scale died so I haven't weighed myself to see if noticed a good change. I feel like I've actually gained, no clothes are fitting me [emoji20] definitely discouraging. I'm curious to hear what they recommend for your diet!

I have started replacing two meals with Protein shakes or Protein Bars since I first met with my Dr. He said that was great it would make the surgery easier. I have about 2.5 more months until surgery.

When I started June 22, I was put on a 1500-1800 cal diet with max of 120g Protein and 150g carb. Quickly found out I could not eat that many calories. For last several month, I have been able to reduce to 1000 or less calories a day. Eleven days into LD has not been a problem.

Just got 4 containers of powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup. Made a glass with low sodium chicken broth and was wonderful on a cold day in N Fla.
