Pre-op diet starts tomorrow ...it's getting real now!



Recommended Posts

That's exciting! My date is 6/28 and I start my pre op on 6/14!! I have to make a shopping list! Anything you recommend greatly appreciated [emoji6]




My pre-op diet seems to be much different from others, I am strictly meat and veggies. No dairy or carbs. If you have the same type of diet, let me know, and I'll be happy to tell you what I did! Good luck!!

Sweet! Mine seems a little different than most as well! Breakfast and lunch is Protein Shakes. Two Protein Snacks can be bars, yogurt, whatever, and dinner is 6oz meat with non start veggie!

This was basically mine too. I was so glad it wasn't all liquid.

Get the sodium free broth packets. They are a life saver. They breakup the Protein Shakes with flavor but don't make you gain/retain weight/water because here isn't any salt. They come in chicken and beef and they're in the Soup isle. IMG_8380.PNG

They're less than $2 per box but you do need 2 packets because of the lack of salt.

I am on my last day of preop. I cant believe I will have made it 15 days with no "food."

I go in at 4:30am. I hope to br home by 4pm. I am ready to get the healing started.

Prayers for sure! My pre-op appt is on the 6th, so I imagine that is when I start mine. My surgery is set for the 16th. Pending my insurance.

Wow. I Had to stay overnight at the hospital. But I'm glad about that. I wasn't in any shape to be at home. On the up side, I was the first to go home of the four of us that had surgery that day.

      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!!
