Tomorrow is day 1 of my pre op diet!! Thought this day would never come. Hope it’s smooth and goes by quickly.

Me too!!! My surgery is scheduled for 8/3 but my surgeon still hasn’t gotten insurance approval. I hope they hear from them soon and we can carry on as planned.
Good luck to us tomorrow!

How’s is day one liquid diet going for you?? I’m sooo hungry lol. It also doesn’t help that I’m PMSing but oh well. I think I’m going to bed early today 😂😂

I have a slight headache but I get to eat food for dinner. What kind of restrictions are you on?

This is day 8 for me with my Pre Op diet. In the beginning my stomach protested vehemently against not getting any food! It took a few days for it to settle down. The smell of food kicks it into high gear and I have had to do a mind over matter type of thing. If you can imagine that broth you are drinking as your coffee, that sf Jello as something else you would rather have, it just may help you along. This has helped me. I hope that makes sense. STAY STRONG AND COMMITTED! REMEMBER YOUR WHY!

I’m on 4 Protein Shakes and a small meal. I too have had a headache. The sugar free Jello and popsicles help.

I’m on a shake for Breakfast and a small fruit, same for lunch, and small meal for dinner. I wonder if I can have popsicles?? The day before surgery I’m on all Clear Liquids.< /p>

You should be able to have sugar free popsicles. It is a liquid. That as well as sf Jello. Both are liquids. This is what I have been told to eat.

@YoBL Yours sounds very similar to mine and I am allowed the Jello and popsicles. Couldn't hurt to ask. I would assume it would be the same as sugar free drink.

Thanks @Chrisb428 and @Cat B

No one told me I could have the SF Jello and popsicles but I’m allowed to have them post op in the liquid phase. I just went ahead and assumed they were fine since they’re liquid and no sugar. 😊
