    Who DOESN'T have a pre-op diet?

    I didn't have one, just liquids the day before to ensure the stomach was empty for the procedure. I was told that in a few years, no one will need the pre op diet; apparently it's to shrink organs like the liver & make the surgery easier. According to my surgeon, as they get more experienced & confident, they won't need people to do this. I take it as a good sign; I've obviously got a great surgeon who didn't need the extra help! Don't think I could've done longer, one day was hideous...!

    Officially Sleeved on Sept. 26th

    I also had my sleeve on 26th! Struggling with the liquid diet, my brain is telling me I need proper food, even tho I'm not the least bit hungry. Craving slow-cooked beef casserole of all things! My friend had her op on 13th & she's already on soft foods. My dietician said I'm on purées next, but I can't wait for soft foods. I'm in Australia, so we talk in kilos here and I'm already 5.4 down in a week, so very happy with that (I think that's about 12 pounds?). Good luck with your journey!
