Topic: RE: pre-op Diets

 I use a baby sippy cup, cause if I didn't, I don't know how many more I could get down. I had heard about that from the dietitian, so if some is really struggling like I was it will help.

WHEN I WAS ON MY PRE-OP DIET I USED PRIMER PROTEIN SHAKES  THEY HAVE 30G OF PROTEIN  AND I ATE GREEN LEAFY VEGGIES WITH BROTH, .. I ALSO HAD SUGAR FREE POPSICLE, ALL DIET DRINKS, NO SODA .. I ATE ALL DAY AND LOST 16 LBS IN 15 DAYS... ON THE 16TH DAY I HAD THE SURGERY .. THE REASON FOR THE FLUID DIET IS TO SHRINK YOUR LIVER FOR SURGERY

HI, just signed up for this site today.  My surgery is scheduled for Jan. 22, I have been on the pre-op diet since Jan 8.  I have 3 protein shakes a day, 2 cups salad greens or 1 cup cooked veg and 3-4oz of lean protein, and 2 1/2 cup servings of sugar free jello.  It is a challenge for me and I honestly feel horrible, I ache everywhere and have a horrible headache! Is this common?  Also I slipped up a little day, I ate more protein with my salad and I had 4 pretzel rods.  I need to stick this out and remember that this is the start of a new life for me.  I just wish I wasn't feeling so bad.

Hi, having my RNY on 1-29-13. I'm also feeling very nervous. I heard from a friend who was very successful with her RNY 5 years ago that this site really helps. It is nice to know others out there are going through the same things.

Topic: RE: Surgery complete
Congratulations to you!!! I had my a RNY this past Monday the 21st. All went well, for some reason I am feeling hungry. I am taking my protein shakes and c/broth protein, that should be helping. I did not think we were suppose to be hungry. It could be gas also. I had to wait 13 years to get the surgery because my husbands insurance would not pay, so I was able to get on Medicare and they pay 80 percent. I am so thankful. Glad everything went well for you.
Your Obesity Help.com friend,
