  1. Taking the Plunge

    Here I go.... First day on this website and not sure how to handle it. I am scheduled for AGB on 9/28 and went to my first support group this past week. A wonderful woman was 4 months past her own procedure mentioned this as a great place to get help and support. I'm in need of both.
     
    I have one more day of FOOOOOOD! before starting my liquid pre-op diet on Monday 9/13. Been gathering protein suppliments and liquids, but was just following the dietician's "canned" recommendations. I didn't understand the importance of the "sugar-free" popsicles/juice and bought all the wrong stuff. Most of them have about 100 calories per serving. Now I'm bummed about wasting them (typical, huh?). After reading some of the forums here it seems like I'm supposed to be shrinking my liver with low carbs, not just eliminating texture and increasing protein as I had thought. Guess it's time for an attitude adjustment and some discipline about getting rid of my stash of liquid carbs. I'll do the right thing because I am committed to making this work. There's lots to learn.
