Ur doctor isn't doing a nicotine on day of surgery? ? I have been smoke free for three months and was told on the 31 of may they will test me before surgery that day and it has to come back clean.

I am in Wisconsin

Thanks for the response.... i have had a few friends that have had this diet before surgery and they all lost 20 or more lbs. I called the nurse cause it was bothering me and she told me it because i have already put my self on a low calorie diet and have already lost 10 lbs this month

I do powder and already made in the cans. I love the cans i can put them in a small ice chest and take them anywhere. Also my extra protein i just mix with crystal light

Good luck i will pray for a fast and easy recovery for you

Yep may 31 i can't wait.... i am trying to stay busy so i don't think about food.... i know this next month is going to be hard.when i gave up smoking i took up chewing gum. I was told last week not to chew gum cause it will tell ur brain ur eating and will make u hungry...i think just drinking is telling my brain i am hungry. Cant wait though it has been a long process

I have been smoke free for three months my surgeon says 6 weeks but i had bad bacteria in my stomach that had to be taken care of before surgery. Which i am very happy is coming may 31.....i lived in San Diego for quite some time. Now i am in Wisconsin.

I am on slim fast 5 times a day i also add an extra 20 grams of protein to my breakfast shake and water for two weeks i am day number 5

I am almost one week in to my protein shake diet before my surgery on the 31 i have only lost two lbs ... i am wondering if its normal.... i have been doing the shakes and my extra 20 g of protein and water.

I wish i wasn't in the middle of my two week liquid diet before surgery.....feeding the family and sitting at the table with my shake sucks can't wait till the 31...at least after surgery i can look forward right now the 31 seems so far away
