Pre-op diet

[cdevine1 3]

When did you stall-out or have a horrible, no energy, super hungry day during your pre-op diets? My surgery is on 4/21, so I am on day 2 of 800 calorie/day liquid pre-op diet and I have been doing much better than I thought. I'm thinking there will be some rough days towards the middle, but wanted to get your experiences.

My surgery is scheduled for April 17 and my only restriction is liquids the day before. But no one or two week preop diet...obviously sticking to high protein/low carb is a must but no liquid only restriction.
Good luck. It sounds like a week of only liquids is rough. So worth it for your new life ahead though!

Congratulations on your journey!!! I am on my pre-op diet! I watched many videos with food ideas. You will do fine! My surgery date is 4/18 and on 4/17 I have Clear Liquids only.

I did the 14 Liquid Protein shake diet. Around day 5 I started to become really slow and a bit crazy. But I stuck to it, no cheating at all. My surgery was on 11/11/14. I was 300lbs then, at 11 months out I had lost 147lbs. Follow the change and it will gift you in return with weight loss and a longer life. I still track all my food, Water, and Vitamins. I get an average of 1100 calories a day still because I eat right.

I start my liquid diet tomorrow. Surgery is scheduled for 4/24. Super excited about the surgery but very nervous about pre-op diet.

My surgery is on the 24th too. So excited. Curious how you're doing on your liquid diet. I'm struggling in a super bad way...

the first three days were the worse for me. It got a lot better after that (not great - but better)
