  1. I made something tonight with cottage cheese. It doesn't have a name, but I used 1/2 a cup of low fat cottage cheese, 1 egg, italian seasonings, 1 oz of mozzarella and 1 oz parmesan. I baked it at 350 for 30 minutes. Tasted delicious. You could add marinara, but I'm not allowed tomato products. It made 2 meals for me. 165 calories each and 15 grams of Protein, 10g fat and 4 carbs.
  2. My hospital numbs you before putting the iv in. Ask if they can do that for you.

    I'm hungry!

    I'm on prilosec. I'm having 2 shakes (60 grams of protein) per day and tons of broth/stock/cream soup. I have always been a meat eater, so I'm hoping that when I move on to pureed foods, some tuna will get me through

    Surgery tomorrow

    Me too!!! I'm believing it will be smooth
  5. My surgery is the 23rd too. I'm surprisingly calm about this. I guess because my fear of not having the surgery is greater, now.

    Anyone with BMI 55+?

    I'm getting sleeved Tuesday. My bmi is 67
  7. This preop diet is giving me the worst leg cramps!!! What can i take/do to stop them?
  8. I think it depends on your doctor/hospital. I had blood drawn for about 30 different tests, an EKG, and a barium swallow so they could x-ray my stomach and esophagus.
  9. My nutritionist gave me a pre op diet that I could eat limited food on, but now I'm nervous because so many are doing liquid diets. Should I be worried?

    Nervous

    @TakeitorSleeveit I feel tons better! I've been following the low carb diet (with several food funerals in between) since January. I'm down 31 pounds. I've just been more strict these past 2 weeks and lost about 8 pounds so far. I'm going to do full liquids starting Sunday and then clear liquids Monday. Surgery is Tuesday.

    June Sleevers!

    I'm June 23rd! Scared, but ready. I keep looking at my 3 year old daughter and know it's the right thing to do.
