Pre-op diet-liquids for 2 weeks!



Recommended Posts

Well, today I started my 2 week liquid diet. :smile2: I sure hope I can make it without cheating. I just have to be determined. We'll see how I am in a few days.

All I know is that I got through day 1. :bored:

13 days left.

Well, today I started my 2 week liquid diet. :lol: I sure hope I can make it without cheating. I just have to be determined. We'll see how I am in a few days.

All I know is that I got through day 1. :bored:

13 days left.

You will make it :smile2:

I only had to do a 2 day clear liquid diet before surgery and I am on a full liquid diet since surgery (9/11).

The less sugar and carbs you give your body the less hungry you feel. I focus on the Proteins. My husband had very good intentions when he bought me a milkshake... but after I drank it I had serious hunger-attacks for two days straight, no more sugar for me.

You will make it, our surgeons have reasons for putting us on those liquid diets and when I have a weak moment I always remind me of my goal.

Keep us informed of your progress!

You can do it. Look at it this way: 'cheating' isn't an option. Follow the rules as they are written exactly.

Make yourself a chart and count down the days-- that is what I'm doing. You'll be there before you know it.

The first two days were my hardest, but after that, the cravings subsided. Then I got through the first weekend and realized I was over halfway through. The next weekend was a three day holiday weekend trip with extended family, but I knew my surgery was just a couple days after I got back home, so I made it through unscathed. Little victories made it doable for me. :bored:

Day 5. Going strong. I get a little hungry here and there, and I immediately get a bowl of Soup with the Protein Powder mixed in. It helps alot. I can't believe I am doing it. I am determined not to fail! This is the beginning of my new life, and I can't wait to start enjoying the new me.

You know, the unflavored unjury is the best. I can put it in anything, and it even makes the Soups taste better....much creamier.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
