thanks! ive cutt my eating in half, and really have tried changing the way i look at everything! I want to be prepared come surgery time!!!

It depends on your Dr.... my Dr gave me this 2 week pre-op diet

*Protein shake in the morning

*4oz lean chicken or turkey or fish

1 cup of steamed veggies 2 cups of raw veggies

1 cup of just green salad with light dressing

1 cup of broth chicken, beef or veggie

*protein shake for dinner

Soo it really depends what your dr tell you..

my doctor didnt really tell me i had to diet before hand, but suggested I do. I am pretty much doing what u said. It's been a week since the new diet, I'm pretty used to it. Protein shakes in the am replace my coffee that's def the hardest thing to get used to. No coffee haha

yes, my pre-op plan was similar to what was mentioned. I had two protein shakes a day. My one meal would be green salad with some type of lean meat, no dressing. No carbs whatsoever. My doctor was pretty strict but I lost 17 pounds in two weeks so it worked. Good luck with your surgery and I'll see you in bandland!!!
