I'd like to know what kind of pre op diet your doctor put you on. My doctor said 2 high protein low carb shakes a day and 1 no carb meal but he said I could have 2-3 teaspoons of non starchy vegetables. I can only eat meat that's 4 oz. or the size of my palm. I've lost 4 pounds since I saw him on Tuesday and my calories are nowhere near 1000 calories.

My date is on the 30th. I wanted to only take a week off too but my doctor said 2 weeks off. I'm scared to ask him to only do 1 week. He's the doctor and he knows best and he's one of those men that is like : I said 2 and 2 is what you'll do! I just put In for 2 weeks off and I'm a teacher too so i sent paperwork in to the district for FMLA. I'm sure if the surgeon says 2 weeks it's for the best. We women think we're Wonder Woman????.

March 30th.Can you add me to the April group, please? I get sleeved on the 30th of March but that's like April right? On Facebook my name is Brenda Melecio Garcia that's actually my name, I live in Florida too:)Thank you for the advice and I will definitely follow my pre op diet. Take care.As a mother of five my heart cried when I read your post. Take care of yourself so that you can be strong and hold your sons hand with a tight, firm grip. You and yours are in my prayers.Just say you've decided to go on a high protein low carb diet & at dinner bring a Premier protein shake & water, sip sip sip:) and of course be polite and let everyone know you'll gladly share your awful shake with them;-).It's the least invasive for me. When I met with my primary care, she agreed she even stated that if she had to choose from the 3, she'd pick the sleeve and that sealed it for me!We're all going to be GREAT!!!March sleevers 2016I'm in Tampa too blue mangosMine is March 30th. Can I join your group?Congrats mine is March 30th.Well, I pray that my surgery will be in March. I feel that I've met my 3 month diet with my primary who's been trying to help me for over a year. I've met with the surgeon, he asked me to get a chest X-ray and blood work, which I finished today and my psych evaluation is next Friday!
