Hi all- Ive been a bit silly today and last night.

I didnt over eat but i may have had a few more carbs than necessary.

Today i had a large biscuit half a baguette and a piece of chicken covered in breadcrumbs. not exactly a lot but my surgery is at 5pm tomorrow with a 6 hour complete fast.

My mum is here from england and she thinks i should cancel because i couldnt even stick to the pre-op sucessfully.

Any ideas would be welcome at this late stage>

I have a Question ????????????

I wander why that diet would not include fruit. My Protein milkshakes can have fruit in them. I have put bananas in them in the beginning, but now I am only putting pineapple in them. I hope I can find out soon because I only have until Dec.2 on the pre-op. I could always stop putting pineapple in them if there is a good reason not to do so. Thank you and have a Happy Thanksgiving day!!

Im not great at these things but dont the sugars in fruit turn to carbs= make the liver bigger?

My surgery is on sunday. The diet says cheese, yoghurts chicken fish and no fruit at all.

Needless to say i havent stuck to it but have been having 4 shakes/soups a day from a previous diet i bought-(like slim fast) with a few little treats. Ive lost over 10 pounds in nearly 2 weeks so im hoping thats ok.

My surgery is at 5pm and i only have to completely fast for 6 hours before no other instructions.

hi all. My op is on sunday and my tummy is so wibbly and excited and nervous.

I saw the anethingy man he told me i may be sick or dizzy but i wasnt worried after reading your posts.

cant believe this is like a complete rebirth. All i can think of is next summer swimming costume and not the fatest whale on the beach.

With 4 young children i will be able to run around and be the mum i want to be.

Thank you so much for the advice especially on the "pain " question.

Getting so excited -is it strange to be looking forward to a few days in hospital away from the kids?

Even my husband is talking about "next summer"

Ive never ever been slim so I am a little unsure about what and who I will be.

Yay me !!!

The more I read the more excited I get.

6 more days to go.

Yay me.

Good luck.

Dalite

Thanks everyone for all your amazing advice so far.

The next question bothering me is could someone expailn what usually happens after the operation in terms of food/ quantities/ types how you feel in the first few weeks etc. Im a bit confused (actually im always a bit confused so i cant blame the operation)

When can you start to eat again.

And finally I know its a personal thing and i dont really want to think about it but can someone tell me in terms of 1-10 whats the pain like.

Thanks again everyone.

Hi all

Thank you so much for your support.. I have had the most amazing journey in the last 12 months. I closed my art gallery / coffee shop in liverpool uk last christmas.

Packed up my husband 4 kids and house (that was hard) and emmigrated to Israel in March. Got the kids settled, nick the husband found a job ive been working a little - now im having the most life changing operation and i wonder why i got depressed last week!!

Anyway even with tucking into the cake i managed to lose 4 pounds. (yay me)

I used to be on a very expensive diet - lighter life last year in the uk and have still got 4 days of shakes left so im going to go on those for the last four days as i find it easier to have 4 shakes a day rather than think about food.

Thank you all so so so much for your support. I will keep everyone upto date with whats occuring (happening) much love and hugs of support back to you all.

Ps ive got my smile back!!!!

Ps ive got my smile back!!!!

Im usually so smiley and happy but at the moment i feel so crap.

I cant stick to my really simple preop diet - what hope is there for me.

Im really worried and scared and so unsure now. Everything was great a month ago but as the date gets closer i seem to have gone to pieces.

The kids are suffering and my mum is flying over from the uk to help out.

I think i must be a little depressed but shouldnt i be happy?

Help

Im crying as i write this .

im currently tucking in to a slice of cheese cake as i write this- why oh why am i sabotaging this diet. ive only been on my pre op diet for less than 2 days.

Im seriously considering cancelling the op how can i be so stupid

Help!:laugh0:

Thank you Norma. Well day 1 of my pre op diet was great - i can even have 250g of chicken.

Looking forward to the op a little more now. Im even thinking of what to pack.

thanks again

ahhh ----Im so scared, here i am on the first day of the rest of my life.

2 weeks to go (29th nov).

My pre op diet is mainly yoghurt and cottage cheese?

I have 4 kids and no one to help my husband while im in hospital for 4 days, so my mum is coming over from england to babysit - yay!

I feel so many emotions- including an anger with myself for not having the strength / will power to do it without surgery.

But really excited and very nervous - its almost like i feel its not really going to happen.

Help!!:thumbup1:

wow , thank you so much its amazing how sharing an experience makes me feel better thanks. How did you do with your pre-op diet?

Hi everyone.

Well here I go on my journey scared to death and really excited.

My date is 29th november. I start my pre-op diet on the 12th really need some support as im feeling a bit wobbly.:crying:
