Hi! liquid-only Pre-Op diet royally sucks. I was already on it, but then my surgery was rescheduled, so I got a weeks reprieve but had to restart again. One week down, one week to go, but it feels like I haven't had a bite to eat in a year. I'll persevere though!
I have to stay under 10g of fat and under 30g of carbs. I'm living off 3 Protein Shakes a day and sugar free jello/popsicles. If you can actually eat real food on your diet, I enjoy you.

Yes the liquid diet sucks!! I just wanna eat mac and cheese or something comforting...uggghhh lol but really I haven't had really bad cravings. I just want to get surgery over with!!

30g of crabs isn't too bad.

I’m in the home stretch! RNY is 8/13 and my 3 day liquid diet begins Friday. In the meantime I’m making sure I have everything I’ll need (drinks/meds) on hand and stuff that my hubby can prepare for himself too. He is almost 3 months RNY postop and now it’s my turn

Your my surgery buddy too??!! Yeeaass! 8/13 is my date as well!! What should I pack for my night stay? I'm so excited!! We're going to be just great!!! You watch!! [emoji106] [emoji106]

30 Grams of Crabs sound gooed, especially if they're from,Maryland, 30 grams of carbs. just doesn't sound as thrilling😳

@ Elle.....I am also the 13th. 2 week preop diet is not too bad now that I am a week into it. Not looking forward to my weekend liquid diet. What state are you in?

I was 8/6. Going home now. Also had a hiatal hernia repair (did any know I had one. It wasn't there when I had the sleeve.) Also had a congenital hernia in my diaphragm, so he fixed that too. That is where my pain is. I have dilaudid this time, which is really helping. I usually don't have much success with pain meds working. Clears only in the hospital, Water and broth are going down fine. Full liquids when I get home.

at the hospital with my hubby, he just came out of the surgery around 1 hour ago! as he is waking up he said he feels like a pressure on the stomach (the air), then he asked for pain medicine not that is painful but he does not want to hurt, he said!
