Recommended Posts

Has anyone been on thier pre op diet while traveling? I didn't have room to take my binder of info and I drew a blank on what and how much to drink and eat. So I'm just doing one meal per day Protein Drinks the rest and Water. I'm in day 4, my son's bday is tomorrow and my family reunion this weekend... Uggghh!! No bday cake for me.

Good Luck!

I am traveling for work during the two week prep diet. My doctors office puts you on a low carb high protien 900 calorie diet of pre packaged foods. I just needed to make sure I had a fridge and microwave to survive. I'm realizing how much of my night when traveling is based on shopping, eating and drinking. I dont want to shop because I hope to be wearing smaller sizes soon, cant eat out or drink. I'm bored to death lol

@mimidi Just curious, but does your doctor's office sell you those pre-packaged foods? What do you mean by "food" during your pre-op liquid period? Is your pre-op diet one week, 10 days, or two weeks?

It's two weeks but not liquid. They have an outlet bv to get vfc the foods but they are name brand stuff. Protien bars, drinks, dinners from health wise brand. They gave us al list to pick from. the diet consists of: one Breakfast item like oatmeal, protien bar, a Soup for lunch, afternoon protien drink, packaged dinner and one more snack. It is pre packaged so they can control the portions and protien intake.

Sorry should have proofread this! Yes we can buy the foods there, but bv they are all available online through other sources. I bought several on Amazon prior to now.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
