Hi Sammie! I found this for you. http://www.caloriecount.com/calories-campbells-cheesy-potato-bacon-soup-i420788 Look at the cool little pie chart on the left halfway down the page. It's a nifty little tool to help you know if you are eating a high protein/ low fat/ low carb item. The purpose of the pre- diet is to make your liver shrink so that the surgeon can operate laparoscopically on your stomach, which is under your liver. Now, in some cases, if the liver has not been shrunk, the surgeon will need to terminate the surgery. I don't want that to happen to you over a misunderstanding. So, I hope you double check whether or not this delicious sounding soup will yield the results the surgeon requires. Take care and good luck.

Recovery was pretty rough for the first couple of days. (sleeved on Oct 28th in Sydney) I'm still having a lot of pain. It comes in waves right beneath and in the centre of my rib cage. Drinks taste off. Artificial sweeteners taste even more off. Powerade Zero goes down pretty well though. looks like there's going to be some trial and error. On the upside, I'm down 14 pounds since I started the Optifast about 2 weeks ago. That makes me happy. How's the rest of the pre-Halloween gang doing? Anybody else fantasising about what your next year's costume will be? ????????????

I'm beginning to second guess myself. I don't want to discuss my nerves with my family because I think they are already nervous enough. I know this is incredibly important for my future, so, I will get through it. But my hands are shaking and I feel like I just can't talk to anyone. Anybody else out there feeling like this?

You look fab! I had to really look to see which one was you in the second picture because you look almost as young as your girls! Thanks for sharing!

I'm feeling a bit nervous about it tonight so I joined up here looking for a couple of "sleeve sisters" who were booked in the same weekend (or close). Even a sleeve bro could be fun. ????
