Pre-op diet 2+12

14 days before my operation

I am starting my pre-op proper on Monday (the day of my pre-op app). Today and tomorrow are trial runs

(will add my plans here later)

So...

TRIAL DAY 01 - MILK AND YOGURT DIET
WEIGTH: ~133.5

10 am (had a late night)
- 2 of 100g pots of youghurt
- a glass of milk (200 ml)

I loved the yogurts (had 1 strawberry and 1 coconut).

1 pm
- 250 mil (half a stock cube) of chicken stock
The stock cube turned out to be low salt and had aweful artificial aftertaste (won't buy that one again). I am glad though there were tiny bits of carrot and other veggies (at least something to chew). Oveall it's not as bad as I thought it would be. I am happy.

2-3pm
- :break_diet: Licked my fingers while making my DD's birthday cake.
Old hapits die hard. Never mind. I'll carry on.

6pm
- 120g - honey and peach muller light - great!
- 120g - mango muller light - not so great
- 200ml - milk
- 1/5 stock cube
Should have eaten everything in reverse order! Have to stick to mealtimes in the future!


7pm
- :break_diet:a piece of cooked salmon (cooked it for Olivia)
- 175g - mango muller light - tastes great
God! I am feeling hungry. Dreaming of cheesy pizza


7pm
- a cup of coffee with milk

9:30 pm
- sugar free jelly - that was nicer than I thought (even aftertaste is not that bad)


10:30 pm
I WANT FOOD!!!!!!! I WANT PROPER FOOD!!!!!!!!


11 pm
- :break_diet:1 babybel, 1 pepperami - I want to cry!!! . On the other hand it was a valuable lesson: GO TO BED EARLIER!!!!!

- 120g yogurt

Heartburn!!! . Had to take renny.

2:30 am
- 200ml milk- I was so excited (about Olivia's party and the beginning of my new life) that I couldn't sleep (had hunger pains as a result). Well, let's be honest, I didn't sleep because I've had insomnia for the last 2-3 months... and I slept till midday... I'VE GOT TO BREAK THIS VICIOUS CYCLE!

All the very best with your pre diet

Lots of us on the diet or just statring it around this time good luck to everyone including myself too

TRIAL DAY 02 - WHOLE FOOD DIET
Today is Olivia's birthday party and I know a few rules will be broken (I have to try the cake I made). I am not sure what our plans for afterparty are'cause it's sis-in-law birthday as well). Therefore I have chose the whole food diet as it allows me to have a piece of sandwich and some veggies.

9 am
- 1 slice of toast
- a cup of coffee
So far so good. I still have hunger pain but feel no emotional hunger at the moment which is good.

1:30 pm
- 1 cheese sandwich
- :break_diet:1 slice of cake
I had my cake :sigh: It was goooood! But I couldn't eat as much I would have even a few days ago.


5:30 pm
- :break_diet:night out
I will try not to eat too much

7:30pm - Chineeeeeeese...
I didn't eat as much as I usually do, but still... +Had a piece of bday cake at home ((((

DAY 01 - MILK AND YOGURT DIET
WEIGTH: 131.7 (weighed at the pre-op app)

6:00
- 175g - strawberry ML
Was woken up early by tummy pain. Just 175g of ML and all sorted. Great!

9:00
- coffee +50ml of milk
Olivia's golden syrup porridge smelled lovely. Had to watch myself and make sure a spoonful doesn't end up in my mouth as it usually does.

10:40
- 120g ML12:00
- 120g - honey and peach ML
13:00 (@IKEA)
- 500 ml of chicken stock (1 cube)
- coffee+30 ml of milk
- jelly
It was good! I was very tempted to grab a chip or a meatball from Olivia's plate but told myself not to even think of it.


16:30pm
- 120g of ML
It was a big gap between meals. I was starving. When Olivia opened a packet of crisps I started singing (luckily just in my head): "And I am not hungry! I am not feeling hungry" Fortunatly I had a pot of yogurt in my lunch bag.

17.00
- 200 ml of milk

18:30
- Decaf skinny latte (100ml of milk in it, I think)
19:30
- 250ml (1/5 a cube) of stock
- 175g cherry ML

22:30
- 200ml of milk
- 120g yogurt

23:20
1 sachet of fybogel

23:50
- 200ml of milk

TOTAL
Yogurt - 690g
Milk - 930ml
Stock - 1,5
Jelly - 1
Water - Loads (at least 2l)

THOUGHTS:
What a day it has been: pre-op app, trips to IKEA, B&Q, Boots, pick up mirror I'd bought on ebay. I finally HAVE A FULL LENGTH MIRROR! All I need now is to learn not to be terrified of my reflection in it.

I never thought that I would be looking forward to drinking stock or Fybogel (!!!) but here I am. Weird.

Another revelation that came upon me was about the reason behind me feeling miserable when I am on a diet. Feeling of being deprived brings back memories of the times when I couldn't afford even basics, let alone treats. Ever since food has in a way become essential to feeling secure.

Overall IT HAS BEEN A GREAT DAY! I am proud of myself! arty0011:arty0011:arty0011:

You survived! It does get easier x

Well done you - the first day is a bit of a shock - it does get easier x

So which diet option you are going to stick with today?

Its lovely to read your updates!! how did your pre op appointment go?

good luck today

Hi Laura
My pre-op went great. No delays, took only 50 min. No problems
As for today I was planning to do soup option but just a look of those soups in tins made me feel sick. So I went back to milk+yogurt. Besides I will be on the go again today and it's quite an easy option to follow while in a hurry.
