Have you tried sf Jello, Popsicles, or broth?How are you feeling Patrick?Roseib, did you have Dr Sonny Cavazos? I heard he is great. He is doing my sleeve at NE Baptist on July 9th. Day 6 pre op right now.Day 6 pre op and it is HARD!!! 5 more days and I get sleeved (July 9th)I am hoping for the same thing!!!I have not tried the frozen SF jello but my octors office told me today no jello. I was like What??? I can have one small meal a day (turkey, chicken,or fish and a veggie).The pre op diet really works... I have lost 10 lbs in 5 days!!! Woo Hoo but it has been brutal.That cool!!! Standard 10 days with my surgeon no metter the BMI.Just following up with you...day 5 pre op is better but I can't seem to digest Protein shakes today. About to have my small meal and drink crystal light and call it a night. I feel like I'm getting a coldWow, nice progress!!! Keep it up!Lucky you jlewis!!!Put some weights on your legs for your weigh in appt. my BMI was 38 but I have some medical issues that qualified me quickly. I have double BCBS insurance and I did not even have a waiting period to get approved. I am getting sleeved on July 9th!!! Good luckDay 4 pre op and it is horrible. I hope surgery is nothing like this. I could not even drink my protein shake last night!!!This 2 weeks pre op is challenging and I am on day 3...argh!!!Day 3 was a little bit better but the hunger headaches are killing me. I was told to not have coffee during my pre op so the coffee is out for me.Are you finding that the protein shakes are watery?Hello Laura, I am on day 3 pre op and I have not cheated yet. It has been rough. I started drinking a protein shake for breakfast only about a week before my pre op actually started in hopes that things would be easier (wrong). I will survive!!! Good luck to you, I get sleeved on July 9th.The pre op diet is hard. I am on day 3. From what I've heard, it gets better. Good luck!
