Pre op diet!

Hi all,

I am just writing out my shopping list. I have worked out all my meals for the week as I start my Pre op diet tomorrow. I can already feel the hunger pains looking at it! Don't quite know how I'm going to survive. I'm going to keep really busy with work & get some jobs done in the house at night. My son is away for the week so I am going to take advantage & get to the pool & do some Zumba classes..... If I have the energy! I will check in here all the time to keep motivated.
I need to keep thinking of the new me, post op. It's only 2 weeks. Also, I reckon my shopping bill is going to halve!
Anybody do anything special to stop the hunger?

hiya kelley. im on re op diet started week early been on it 6 days and i have managed brilliant , doin the milk on. i got weighed day 5 had lost 10 pounds so was buzzing, if when u start pre op and u feel hungry tell yourself its worth it for the operation.nothing could make me risk this operation. my will power is excellent working in a chippy so cooking food all day long and not once thought about cheating myself. gllll with your diet, keep positive and go girl go xx
 
U are good working in a chippy! Wow, that weight loss would motivate me! I know, nothing can get in the way of this op. Well done u xx
 
Hi there well I am on day 7 of the pre op doing the restrictive (diabetic) version and only had one day of real hunger with it. Strange but true I have actually enjoyed my food more and its good training for the future! AND yes the weight does come off too!
 
I start my milk diet hopefully on the 2nd of Sept. I have been organising things such as the sugar free jelllies that I am allowed and bought those is. Been on the look out for NAS Crusha to flavour the milk and bought in some stir fry oil (spray can type) and also the packs of Stir Fry Veg. Hubby will go to the super market while I am on my diet so as I don't become tempted, but all in all I think that I am looking forward to it as I know it is another step closer to the new me.

Gook luck to everyone who is pre op diet stage and keep it up. :D
 
I am made up that my entire weeks food bill (+ husbands) was £40! Pre op diet is defo good for the bank balance!
 
i got offererd the low cal or milk diet, i choose milk cause i know id b crap at working out cals, atleast wiv milk i dont have to think of what i have to have to eat lol x
 
Post op diet is good for the bank balance too. Without a hubby and dog food already bought, my bill was less than £6 ! Yogurts and soup don't cost much.
 
Day 1 down! Had a few moments were I felt starving but somehow managed to blank it out! Managed to distract myself this evening with a swim - strung it out with a lengthy steam room session so feeling really good. Amazing how u can feel full when you sit & chew for a long time! 2 weeks tom till op!!
 
Hi Kelley, welcome to pre-op! I'm doing the low carb, low fat, protein one - have now completed 10 days and only had a couple of difficult moments - the thought of a broken liver or cancelled op keep me strong lol:)

Keep busy, keep focussed and enjoy watching the scales go down, and remember what goes off now is not coming back!!
 
Hi minxie, thanks for that! Good advice! I am looking forward to getting weighed. Well done, 10 days in! It must nearly be op time? Good luck x
 
Definitely! Also looking forward to getting all my size 28 clothes on eBay!

I ahve already sold a wool coat on e-bay and working on a job lot to put on soon. I am on holiday the Bank Holiday week so the wardrobes will be well and truely sorted.
 
Have just got weighed & have lost 10lbs in 5 days! Over the moon. Had some moments but the thought of the new me has kept me strong! God my weight watchers leader would have collapsed if she weighed me today. I'm usually a 1lb a week kinda gal! Made up x
 
Hi Kelly,

I am on day 11 of the milk diet and i have found it ok to be honest.
I did think it would be hell on earth but i have never been hungry not once.
I am having my op on Wednesday so i only have 3 days of the milk diet to go . I have lost nearly a stone so am really pleased.

All the best with your pre-op diet ,
love Marie.xox
P.S where do you live and where are you having your op ?
