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 :/


I thought I had replied to you before, but I didn't see it. I am scheduled for the same day. I started my pre-op diet too. I've practiced it before, just so that I would know what to expect.... but starting the actual pre-op diet has been crazy. All of a sudden, I am craving foods because I know that I won't be able to eat them again. It truly messes with your head.
If you need someone to chat with, message me.

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 [emoji4]


I think you are lucky here. I am not allowed food. Strictly Protein Shakes. They did say sugar free popsicles and jell-o, but I can't have either because that type of stuff gives me indigestion. :(

If you have to use a fork or knife to eat it, probably don't.

If it's liquid, probably go for it.

Hope this helps :)

ps - Did they give you a nutritionist?

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
