Preop diet coming soon



Recommended Posts

So I start my two week liquid and veggie only (steamed, raw or baked) diet on Sunday and I am terrified 😩. I went shopping today and got some Protein Shakes and Protein Water. Tomorrow I’m going to grab sugar free Jello, popsicles, broth and veggies. I’m just super nervous Im scared to death of being hungry I know that sounds weird. But I’m scared that I won’t get through it and I mess up. It’s not about not having faith in myself its about knowing myself.

So after saying all of that anything I’m missing that I should grab? Or any tips on how to power through these next two weeks so I can avoid being hangry (hungry and angry) and committing food-icide (food homicide) and messing up.

Being nervous about success is natural, I mean how many times have we tried to lose weight and failed, thing to bear in mind for the pre-op diet if you have a slip up its not the end of the world, don't let it become an excuse to go off the rails. Get back on track immediately. You will get through, I have no doubt you are much stronger than you give yourself credit for.

You will be surprsed how quickly the time will pass. One thing to bear in mind is that the first few days will likely be the worse, make sure you get plenty of Water, eat as much vegies and broth as your plan will allow.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
