Pre-Op Diet for Weight Loss Surgery 🥛 What is it + Can you cheat? (Liquid / Protein Shake Diet)

[@MarieHolliday]

I lost 31 pounds on my preop diet

[@drislady]

That’s amazing!

[@raeg.8669]

My surgery is on December 5th, I cheated once and I feel horrible about it. Watching your video helped me refocus, and the sound of your voice is very soothing. Thanks for the video!

[@Raul-wt5jx]

Finally a video that sticks to facts and dosent go on for minutes on end talking about irrelevant things. Thank You Sir!

[@brandyyates2369]

I'm on 7 day of my liquid diet. I have not cheated once. Trust me it's been very hard. I drink 3 protein shakes a day and a lot of chicken or beef broth, and jello. I spoke with my dr. She said I can add chia seeds in my protein smoothies when I make them during the 2 week diet, but not after. Chia seeds help keepe fuller. This diet has tested will strength and will power but I want to succeed and have a healthy life. Listen this diet isn't forever it's just short term to a greater ending. You got this!!!

[@brittanynoel3495]

I’m on day 1 of my pre op diet. I contemplated cheating a few times while making my kids food. This helped me. I dont need to cheat. I can do this! Thank you!

[@lizzzzzzzalica]

I agree, it's hard to stay on the wagon when everyone else in the house is eating normally and you have to prepare it😏 I'll start my preop diet on Monday, 2 weeks before op (16.08). I'm on low carb since beginning of the month, so it should be easier for me to transition! But I'm extremely nervous that I'll mess something up 😬

[@tutatehaja1777]

Well done!! It's so hard

[@spreadlovenothate.9372]

I'm on Optifast for 5 weeks. On day 6. Been HARD. Slamming back water to try and stay full lol.

[@arieldavis9659]

I’m on day 2 of my all liquid diet and I took a bite of grilled chicken 🥺 it was barely a mouth full but I felt so bad!!! I’m starving tho and these shakes are disgusting 😔

[@dontonyajones4800]

Ughhhh I’m going through that now and I hate it here all I keep thinking bout is how far I’ve come

I’m currently on day 3 of my 14-day full liquid diet. When I got approved by my insurance company, I had already talked myself out of getting my surgery as planned because I’ve waited since 12/2021 to get approved. I thought another postponement would occur. So as soon as they emailed me, I got started. I’m 11 days away from surgery but all I can think about is the scrambled eggs I didn’t get to have that planned on making that morning; as well as the tacos I didn’t get to prepare for dinner. So even though I have not cheated, it’s on my mind. I’ve had to create mantras for myself and post them on my social media to keep me accountable. I’ve also started tracking my dry weight when I wake up daily. So I’ve mentally told myself, “If you cheat, all the progress you made will be lost! Keep going!” This is tough. And I’m ashamed of how hard it is and how much I love good food. But I’m trying not to beat myself up too bad as I don’t have the anatomical tool that will assist me, the duodenal switch! I’m not going to cheat. I’m going to keep pressing forward. This video and everyone’s comments have truly helped me. I will refer back to this post if things get rough later on. Thank you everyone!

[@goldenlifelove7251]

Whew, I started 2 days ago & have cheated both days😩😩 This is the worst time of year to be doing this & tomorrow is Christmas😢 I'm out of town & really need to be in my own home while going thru this.

[@sted27]

Day 2 and I am dying. Headaches and all

[@mw6346]

I appreciate you being honest about cheating. I'm on day three I ate some pickles. I know it's cheating but I figured if I had to cheat that's not to bad of a cheat. Low cal, no fat, no carbs.

[@arisschenck1164]

I didn't the same twice

[@luckydogsmom577]

I'm on day 4 of my 7 day diet and it's hard. The second day was the worst. I had a horrible headache all day and just felt like crap. After that it's just been hard because I want to chew something. Trying to keep the goal in focus. 7 days for a lifetime of being healthier is worth it.

[@robertjr263]

FINALLY A STRAIGHT FORWARD VIDEO!!!! THANKS BROTHER!!!!

[@randomreviews5657]

Thanks for the video. Great info. My Dr. Wants me to do a two week diet of 1500 calories per day just to show that I am committed to weight loss. This is even before the two week liquid diet. I have done really well for 5 days. I did not cheat once. Tonight I went to the cupboard and found a big bag of chips. I ate the full bag and have been beating myself up ever since. I was ready to throw down the diet and the weight loss surgery because of my mistake. This video helped me continue on

[@tutatehaja1777]

Ohh well done you can do it. It's frikken hard.

[@MarieHolliday]

My preop diet was a little over a month liquid prior to my bariatric sleeve completed on April 8th 2024

[@drislady]

I’m on week 2 of my liquid diet. I have to do four weeks. It’s driving me nuts. This is so hard.

[@kimberlygordon7805]

This video is so helpful to me!!! I’m on my two week liquid diet right now and I cheated. It’s HARD. Ive also heard it’s harder than actual surgery. I’m so glad I came across this. I’m freaking out about them not being able to do surgery now.

I just want to thank you so much for this video it has definitely brought me out of depression I weigh in tomorrow and I’ve cheated twice on my liquid diet

[@wtfman1217]

How did u go? Did the cheating slide and got the surgery done? Iv stuffed up my pre op diet that I’m currently doin twice already!

[@arisschenck1164]

If you mind me asking what did you eat? How many days before surgery? I ate a slice of Turkey rolled up with a slice of cheese. I also ate a skinless chicken leg the following day.😔 I'm five days away from surgery.

[@misssocialbutterfly5576]

You really made me feel better thank you

[@Godsownsunshine8]

[@accuratesamable]

My doc said I only needed to do liquid for 2 days

[@lucyinthesky4682]

My cousin that I never wanted to have this surgery just went through this. I tried to discourage her. I have anorexia and occasionally bulimia and tried to tell her that she's just as unhealthy as me. Her doctor gave her 3 days of liquid pre surgery. I think her care team is awful. Every well reputed, well known medical facility gives 2 weeks to make sure in the final count down you can do it. She was hesitant at the last few days but figured she'd be ok as she loved protein drinks. I drink them all the time, it's an anorexic way to keep up strength and vitamins but not gain weight. I would go to the gym with her and she started loving the banana protein drinks. Now after surgery, her taste is different and she hates the drinks. She literally cries having to drink it. She wasn't diabetic but when her sugar is low she gets do sick. She wants to "cheat" by having a teaspoon of applesauce but is literally terrified it could kill her. If she was on a liquid diet longer than 3 days, she may be would've known her sugar would cause her to literally bottom out. Sometimes the easiest thing isn't the best.
