So my pre-op diet starts officially on May 30 but I started yesterday just so I could adjust. Mine consist of 4-5 Protein Shakes and 2 cups of veggies . How much did you lose on your pre-op diet. I have to do this for 14 days

I only had to do mines for 5 days and with only liquids. (Sf Jello, sf popsicles, Protein Shakes, Water, Gatorade g2, and broth) I lost 10 pounds in those 5 days.

I guess I am lucky -- my doctor is only requiring a liquid pre-op diet for one day. And I have been told NOT to drink Protein Drinks before surgery as they cause weight gain.

Good luck!

I had to do 4-5 Protein Shakes a day plus all the very low (or no) calorie liquids I wanted - which included sugar free popsicles and sugar free Jello, both of which I ate with abandon because it was the only thing I could eat for two weeks that somewhat resembled real food. I could also have something like a cup of Tomato juice or V8 a day, and/or a cup of chicken broth. That's it. No veggies, nothing. I lost 15 lbs.

      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!!
