Oh dear you guys I am feeling so disappointed in myself already!

First day of my pre-op diet today, and i went all good while I was at work but then I got home and I was starving and I just ate so much crap which I shouldn't have at all. Like canned tuna and cheese haha so random but it was just the first thing I could get my hands on that was instant food. Ugh feel quite disgusted in myself actually. The mental side of this is going to be such a struggle for me even after the surgery...I mean even though I know I am doing this for my health etc I still couldn't stop myself eating those things. Its like the hungry beast takes over and I lose control. So lame :/

Are you allowed any food on yours? If so, maybe you should eat it around lunch to help get you through the day.

yes I am allowed 3-4 x Optifast products and 2 cups of vegetables from an approved list.

I probably went wrong as I only had 2 optifast products and some homemade vege broth so by the time I got home at dinner time I was starving and ate stupid things while I was cooking dinner.

Have had my big plate of veges now, and I'm feeling satisfied again. Tomorrow will be a better day I am sure!

Thanks for the suggestion, I might try that tomorrow veges for lunch and Soup for dinner instead maybe :)

Extended diet + 2 week pre-op..pdf

It just occurred to me that I could probably share my pre-op diet in an easier format, rather than trying to type the whole freakin thing out. Current status - Kind of hungry ;)

Surgery July 6th, my "14 Day Pre Op Diet" starts after tomorrow, should be a piece of cake..mmm cake haha

My surgery is on July 19th. I start my pre-op diet on the 9th. Funny thing is, I'm more scared to stay like I am now than of this surgery. I figure, it can only get better from here on out!

I had my surgery Wednesday. It was NO WHERE CLOSE to whst I thought. I had NO pain, only had Tylenol in the hospital. Not much nausea or gas. The worst problem I have is trying to get enough fluids in. I wad never a big drinker. I have lost 27lbs so far counting my pre-op diet, my feet and back have stopped hurting already. Its been easy...so far!
Good luck!!!!

      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! 😞
