Hi I am not on my pre-op diet yet and don't have a date but have been told it could be in 4months.
I am very naive when it comes to nutrition I have no idea what's good for me or bad for me.
I have trouble with food as I don't eat fish of any kind I only eat peas and runner beans, lettuce cucumber
Spring onions red onion carrots raw never cooked chicken pork beef mince I like pasta but was told I couldn't eat that,
I also like potatoes I love mash but once again was told not to eat that.

So as you can see I am slightly worried that there wont be enough choice out their for me. I don't care as I will find something to eat even if I have to live off of sf jelly fruit and salad all my life as long as it's enough to keep me alive.
But I wanted to know if there were any books out there for food nutrients for those that have had surgery and if not why haven't one of you written one........lol

Oh I do like oxo cubes to drink always have.

My pre-op sheet say's :

clear soups (stock cubes, stock powder, home made stock)
Sugar free jelly
Clear Fluids tea coffee with milk but NO sugar
Bovril or consommé
A portion of steamed grilled or baked not FRIED fish or chicken for evening meal with green veg or green salad only.
If your vegetarian you may have eggs for your evening meal with green veg or salad .
NO bread or bread products NO pasta potatoes or rice. DO NOT EAT CHOCOLATE OR SWEETS AND DO NOT CHEAT!
Three portions of fruit a day ONLY
You may season your food or add garlic onion or herbs and spices
Drink plenty of water. Sugar free squash is allowed.

IF IT'S NOT ON THE LIST DON'T EAT IT!



All good but what is consommé when they say baked. Chicken is that roasted, can you still have salad cream or mayonnaise if it's low fat?
And people have said they eat cracker bread and Melba toast while on the pre-op diet.

It's so confusing. I need someone to tell me what's good food and what's bad food I have tried looking for a healthy eating nutrition book but I get con fussed with it all. What should I look for on the packs of food when shopping the calories or the fat if the fat which fat oh gosh see what I mean.....
Please help?...
 
I also don't eat cheese well only spread laughing cow etc, cheesy dips sour cream and chives. Or melted cheese on toast or pizza etc.

Thanks for reading. Any advice is welcome.

Consommé is clear soup. Look in waitrose, they do nice beef and chicken consommé. No sauces like salad cream, as the fat content, even in low fat, may be too high to aid in liver shrinkage. This is what this diet is about.

Not seen anyone mention any bread on the pre op (all the above is varying degrees of post op food)

I did a pre op recipe thread, mostly messing with eggs, fish and turkey. Have a look for it as I can't link it from my iPad. I will be writing them up in my recipe blog eventually.

Hope that helps hon.

Invest in a steamer if you haven't got one. Best thing I ever bought. I steamed all my veg and meats for the pre op and will do again when I'm back on solids pst op.

I made "sauces" using water and tea bags (flavoured ones) or the consommé and mostly had poached or boiled eggs with green veg.

I'm a fish fiend so a lot of my recipes were fish related but I'm sure chicken world work well.

No pork or beef though. Stick to chicken, turkey and eggs.

All hospitals do things different hun that's the same pre-op diet I had. Chicken as in grilled, baked in the oven no oils/fats. No salad cream, Mayo any sauce even if it is low fat. You are allowed a tiny bit of soy sauce as well as herbs/spices.

Basically stick to what's on the sheet, & deffo NO CARBS, FATS OR SUGARS.

Get used to no carbs coz after the op you can't have any until your back on to normal foods & then it's only once in a while. Always best to check with the team at the hospital if your having it at the PRUH you will see Star if your not sure with anything because all hospitals do things different Clo x x

Thanks guys it was fab and hell yeah I bought the dress - considering wearing it inside our for maximum label size showing off purposes lol xx
 
Hope your pouch is more settled tomorrow Kitty. I think May's advice is good advice xxx

The fage alone is not very nice. So I will try mixing things in, like your yummy sounding idea. Thanks :D

And I would also wear it inside out. Or have a badge made that accessorises, saying 'This dress is size 14' lol x

Maybe you will be fine with mush by Sunday. Our pouches are strange. I sick a lot oless on solids and soft then I did on puree. Other people are the other way around. Just no set pattern for anyone x
