Hat exactly will the pre op diet be like

I started my pre-op diet monday this week. Mine sounds more generous. I am to have 3 Protein Shakes and 3 meals a day. Women even have 4-6 free choices per day. Goal is 120-150 grams of Protein per day. I had totals do far of 147 and 151. Its hard to get it all in. I put one carton of protein mix in the car just in case I am gonr for the day. It was my lifesaver on Monday!

The date is set...Aug 12th! Its been 7 months since my first appt...and here I am, scared, nervous and so excited. I'll be having hernia repair, bypass and gallbladder taken out in one shot. Anyone who had anything similar to those procedures, I'm super interested to hear of your recovery and how long before returning to work (though I realize everyone is different). I would love to buddy up with someone!

I have surgery on the 14th. I will be your buddy!!!!

What are your thoughts? My bmi is 63, so seriously thinking about the DS.

Tomorrow is my first appointment with the surgeon. Hoping he gives me a green flag!!! Amazing to think its really gonna happen this time :-)
