PRE-OP DIET

By CAMMYD

· 514 views

Dr. Tariq's nurse called yesterday to inquire how the diet is going and to have me go stand on the scales , yeeeeeah me!!!!!! I have lost 16 lbs from 3 wks ago following this liquid diet. Only a few more days until I get the sleeve I am so happy to finally reach this day! I have gotten hungry and been very tempted to just bounce back into my old habits and whip a mean meal that satisfies the soul, but I think about the greater good in what I am trying to do for myself and the sabotage thoughts go right out the window!!!! It's amazing how you can condition yourself to drink water and feel full , I never remained constant in doing this before I felt I had something at stake !

 

Thanks for the call Jen!!!!!! You guys are keeping me on track !

    :D]You are doing swell, Cammy!! I lost that much preop,too. Being 3 weeks post op now, I go to the dr tomorrow. I have lost 24 pounds overall. Have about 55 left to lose. Noticing alot of inches are gone. You will do fine at surgery. The preop diet is to shrink your liver as they will flip it over to expose your stomach organ to do the work. My incisions are almost h healed now. Glad you are doing so well!! Keep us posted! Ronda :rolleyes:
