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.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
