    So last night I tried unflavored protein mix with the low sodium 33% fat free checken broth and YUM!!! What a pleasant change to the chocolate and vanilla protein shakes I have been drinking for the last week and a half! I always liked salty better than sweet anyway! Just thought I'd share! And as of this morning I am down 11 lbs so YAY! I figure I should be able to at least double that by surgery Nov 3. Hope everyone who has started the pre op diet is hanging in there! Its tough at first:frown:! But were all getting closer as we wind down these last few days of October!!!!!

    Endoscopy?

    Good luck!!!! It will be a breeze and it's just one step closer to surgery!! I'm hitting the lab at 5 am and I don't do well with having blood drawn and it sounds like they take a bit...ugh! Can't wait to hear how it goes for you!

    I got my approval last week and they gave me my surgery date the same day!!!! Im scheduled for Novemeber 3!!!! I was so pleasantly suprised, and started the pre-op diet right away! Im going in tomorrow for all my labs and my pre-op appointment is 11/26. Excited and nervous right now!

    Has anyone else started the pre-op diet????? My surgery date is Nov. 3 and they told me to start the diet last Thursday after they gave me my date. I'm finding it a bit harder than I thought I would because I end up with a headache by the afternoon. But I will say that today was much, much better!! But I did have a string cheese in the morning! My diet is supposed to be two to three protein shakes a day and a meal of lean meat with a vegetable, these shakes are getting a bit boring but it's only a couple of weeks so I know I can get through it!!! By the way does anyone know where to get chewable probiotics??? My nutritionist said I should get some to have everyday. I'm so excited for all of us to begin this journey together!!!!

    Endoscopy?

    I'm scheduled for surgery on Nov 3 and my surgeon ordered a bunch of pre op test and labs with all kinds of abbreviations so I'm not really sure whAt any of them are! I'm going to the lab Thursday so that I will have all the reports ready for them at my pre-op on the 26th! I wonder if I have to have an endoscopy too?? Please post how it goes!!! Good luck!!!
