Pre op diet

[lizzie52]

I'm just wondering how people feel on the diet. I feel shaky and sick, nervous.

I started my milk diet on Monday and have felt fine, no side effects. Really surprised!

 

[lizzie52]

I have been on it since Sunday and today is the first day I feel like this. What diet you doing? I'm doing milk and yogurt.

 

[Redorlando]

I'm on the milk only diet. I am allowed 1 pint of sugar free jelly a day, so at least it feels like I'm eating something

 

[lizzie52]

At least your eating something. Good luck. When is your op

 

[Redorlando]

My op is on Wed 17th April at SRH, can't wait!!!
Just been making some soup, mashed potatoes & veg mince, ready to freeze. Might make more soup tomorrow?

I felt shaky, sicky, headachey for the first few days but after that I was fine (if you discount hungry enough to chew my own arm off!). As you are a few more days in, perhaps the milk diet is a red herring and you have a little virus or something. Maybe check in with your team if it continues as I have heard of the odd person discovering they are lactose intolerant during the prep period and feeling a bit rough. Hopefully, it will be over befor eyou know it! Good luck with your iminent ops people. x

Hi i'm on the 5th day of the 3 pints of milk and 2 yogurts and still don't feel right. A bit shakey and headachey weak if i do anything beyond sit and walk slowly.
I keep thinking of the outcome i'm heading for and the great results i'll see after the 23rd when i have the roux-en-y gastric bypass.
lVery best of luck on you journey.
keep in touch as we'll be have the surgerys so close together.
