Liquid Diet Rant



Recommended Posts

Warning this rant is a little TMI. lol Weds I started my monthly flow and I started my liquid diet today also pre-admission testing today as well. I have 13 more days to go for my pre-op diet. I told my best friend to do a wellness check on my husband this weekend. lmao It's coming to the end of the day and my stomach wont stop gurgling. Its a loud gurgle sound too. It started happening about 5pm. I've had some looks from people because of how loud it was. haha I've had 4 Protein Shakes, 2 jell-o cups, 2 servings of broth and 50oz of Water. My next Protein Shake isn't for another 1hour and I still have 2 more cups of water to drink. I don't have any food cravings but my stomach says feed me!!!! lol I've had the poos all day with a nasty headache. Just keep telling myself that tomorrow will be better and the day after will be better and the day after that will be better. haha Just feel like crawling into bed and waiting for Feb 1st to get here already.

I started my diet today also and feel any minute I could snap on someone! This is pretty awful but I keep thinking it will get better after a few days.....I know this is the best thing for me and I am trying to keep my eye on the prize. It is very hard. I was a soda drinker and honestly I could care less about the food but I would love a cold pepsi. Good luck. I feel your pain. We can do it!!!!!!

OMG sounds like you want to chew something real bad, even if it's your own arm. Maybe we should get a collection up, but you a teeshirt, logo would read "Dangerous when Peeved or Hungry" LOL but it will get better when your diet progresses through the stages.😛

FYI I wasn’t perfect on the pre op 2 week diet. I did Protein Shakes during the day and then had a little Protein and veg for dinner. My liver was just fine for surgery. I was pretty good the 2 days before surgery and certainly all liquids the day before. Doc said i had a done a good job but also i had a BMI of 34 starting. Just sayin..

I'm on day 3 of my carb free, high Protein diet. Its definitely not fun, but I look at it as, Its going to be my new normal. I need to adjust sometime. My surgery date is Jan. 31st. So we can do this together.

On day 7 of my liquid diet with 7 more days to go and I've lost 15 lbs so far just being on the diet. I'm really excited about the weight loss. I haven't cheated on my diet. I've stuck to 5 Protein Shakes, 64 oz of Water, 2 Jell-O cups and 2 bowls of broth. But I'm so ready for Feb 1st to get here.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
