Am on my second month of "pre-op" diet and no date set yet. I still have a mandatory 4# left to lose. Had to cut out all bars and my once daily Protein food for more nasty shakes. Getting discouraged a bit. Have to make weight by Monday so he will schedule me. God give me strength.

WOW! Just got scheduled for August 26th!!! The day before I will have my psych eval and last appt with the surgeon. I have been struggling with the last 2 pounds of my mandatory weight loss and boom now I am scheduled even though I haven't lost it. I have been on shakes and bars since June and will be soooo happy to finally get this done. liquids post-op can't be as bad as liquids pre-op with a full size stomach. Still just blown away. Cannot wait to be done!!

One minute at a time girl. What is done is done and now you have to move on. Remember why you are doing this. Make your next food choice healthy and before you try Cookies again drink some Water first.

I'm on the pre op diet and my brain believes I am starving. I really am not - my calorie intake is close to 1000 calories a day (my doc recommends 2-3 shakes - depending on hunger- and one "lean and green" meal). But WHY, oh WHY does EVERY commercial have to be about food? ??
Anyone else notice this? It's annoying!

Well I will be making the 7 hour trip there and back two times in two weeks. When I got home before I talked to them all I wanted was to eat carbs but I didn't. I went walking and ate what I was supposed to and now I am glad I did. Still not happy about 2 14hour drives in 2 weeks but it is what it is. Thanks for helping me over the bump
