dap72608 got a reaction from jessiquoi in Pre op diet
Just came back from my Nutrition education class. My surgery is scheduled for the 30th and I was dreading the liquid diet. But I found out that I just dont only have to do liquids I can eat food as well. I have to eat a 1000 calories, 60-80 grams of Protein a day and 64oz of Fluid. Im excited only 12 days left

The struggle is REAL! This is day 7 of full liquids for me. I wish I could have some protein to chew. Lol...I just keep telling myself just 7 more days to go. We've got this!

congrats to all of the September sleevers. My sleeve was done September 1st and all is well. I read a post that said they splurged this past weekend with there husband and only need to do a clear liquid diet a couple of days before her surgery. I thought that too, but when I did my research I discovered that it should really be two weeks on Clear Liquids diet. But that time period had pasted for me, so I did a clear liquid diet the week before surgery. I have a girl friend and she and I went through this journey together. She only did the clear liquid for two-days before her surgery and her liver was much larger than mine and her surgery was longer because of it. I would suggest at least do the clear liquid for one week before the surgery. Just my two cents...... Good luck to ALL....

I too am scheduled for September 30th. I have one more test to
complete and am waiting for insurance approval. Needless to say I am
nervous, scared, anxious, ready, etc. I am looking for support also. Even though I am a registered nurse, I am not a bariatric nurse I have done a lot of research and will continue to talk with everyone who has done this surgery. I am a sponge, I need answers. I want to know the whys, hows, etc. I am anxious to go through this journey with each of you.
Good Luck to us all!!!
