On my three week pre op diet....

and Im dying for some cheese! Im always hungry. Ive been on it now for 13 days with one week left to go but Im starting to loose it. I keep telling myself to be patient and the surgery is around the corner but UGHHH! Just wanted to vent.

 
Hang in there, you're on the home stretch!

How intense is your pre-op diet?  I was put on a strict Optifast 900, 4 shakes and up to  2 cups of either broccoli, celery, cucumber, or green peppers, lots of water ... and that's it.  That's all I've had for the last 3 weeks - I want something savory so badly - LOL

My surgery is on Friday, so I know it's almost done.  


You can do it!  This will pass and it will lead you to the door way of your new life!!!

Im on Bariatric advance 3 shakes a day and one veggie salad with 6 oz protien. Lots of water as well. Im just sick of suckin down these shakes.

Keep your eye on the prize.... your doing GREAT! 

Why are you doing three and not two week pre-op liquid diet?

Some people do not have to be on a pre-op diet or liquid diet and some do.  For 2 weeks for me was high protein, chicken, turkey, fish, veggies fruits, yogurts, cheese, cottage cheese sf puddings and sf jello, so I was fortunate.  Then the day before surgery was clear liquids.  Hang in there people you have been doing great, this too will be over soon.  Jane

I'm just finishing the pre-opt liqued diet, hang in there it will be over before you know it.

Thats what my surgeon requires.

i had to do 4 weeks consider yourself lucky haha. I actually didnt mind it. Day 1 and 2 were the worst then it was no big deal.

Hang in there!  I am now sixe months post-op, and I still say the pre-op diet was the hardest part so far.  It's all downhill from here, if you are anything like me.
