[pixiepiratess]

Drink to fill up.
Eating arms is definitely cheating lol.
Hang in there. It does get easier.Good luck.

R u allowed an oxo cube in hot water?

I know it will make u want to pop to the loo, but try drinking half a pint of water. Its surprising how much it can quell those hunger pangs.

Brush your teeth, it really helps!

Hi pixie,

I started my pre op diet today. I keep thinking about it too much and worrying it will be hard. Had a protein shake this morning and going to have another one now, the chicken and salad tonight. We have to keep reminding ourselves why we are doing it. Must be a bit harder for you as you are doing the milk diet. Weighed myself today as we got back from hol but a bit unhappy as I put 5lb on, I knew I would put about 2 on. I feel my first week will be losing this again.

How much chicken or fish? Weren't you given a plan to follow?

 

[pixiepiratess]

Plan to follow was low fat high protien .. i would say half a breast of chicken or one peice of fish ...

 

[tealovingsleever]

Seems ok then!

 

[BigDee's now little]

Pixie I would say you could up your protein and have a full chicken breast,

I think you'll be fine - my pre op diet is not as severe as the one you have anyway.

Before I even started the pre-op, I'd been low fat, low carb, high protien diet for 4 weeks. Actually lost 18lb last month from when doctor weighted me to hospital weighing me.

They told me they'd have been happy operating right away... so just to continue what I was doing until D-day.

I've been having 80g of natural yogurt (unsweetened) in the morning - make it myself with an easiyo.

Small pack of peas in the pod, butterbeans and edame / soya beans in a light dressing (200cals) from Sainsburys at lunch time.

Snacking on occassional carrot sticks during the day and some protien (normally grilled meat or fish) and some steamed veg (ad-lib) at night
