Thanks so much. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. You are in my thoughts and prayers today!!

I haven't "convinced" anyone, but my wife decided she wanted to have the surgery as well and we are doing it together.

I just weighed and took measurements and I have lost 18 pounds and 19 inches (from waist, hips, thighs, knee, calf, chest, upper arm, forearm, and "bust") since I started the 2-week pre-op diet!! So excited to start seeing the scale moving down, down, DOWN!!!

I just finished up my 2-week Pre-Op liquid diet and I'll confess that it was difficult, but it got better after about the first 3 days. The first few days I had a bad headache and was really hungry, but each day gets a little easier. Good luck to you as your start your pre-op diet!!

Thank you! Thanks! And I know, right? Thanks so much!! That is very kind. Thanks so much! Thank you...and Congrats!!! Best wishes to you as well!! Thank you and CONGRATS!!! Best of luck to you on your journey!! Much appreciated! Thanks! I can use all I can get! Thank you! Thanks so much! And glad to hear you are starting to feel better!!

Thanks so much!! I leave for the hospital in about an hour.

Today is the day!!! Surgery for me in a few hours!!! I'm quite nervous, so thoughts and prayers are much appreciated.

My surgery is today as well!!! Good luck and may peace and calm overcome you.

Hope everything went well for you. I am tomorrow.

Hope your surgery went well today!! Keep us posted.

Try different protein shakes. I personally REALLY like Unjury Chocolate Splendor and Chicken Soup, Premier Chocolate, and some Syntrax Nectar flavors.

I am packing as we speak for my surgery tomorrow, so THANK YOU so much for the list. It was very helpful!!! The only thing I would add is Gas X strips, mouthwash, and maybe a book or magazine.

I'm packing my bag as we speak, so thanks for all of the suggestions guys!!

Good luck!!! Keep us posted. I am tomorrow!!! Eeek!!!

I had to do 2 weeks Pre-Op diet of mostly liquids and staying below 500-700 calories each day. Yesterday and today I have had to be on clear liquids, sop that only gets me to around 80 calories each day since I can't have sugar, carbs, fat, etc. Tonight I get to do the awesome cleanse (TMI I know as well), but not sure what it will accomplish since I haven't had anything but liquids. lol.

@@jhutch @@phatfatgirl Did you guys have to drink a bottle of Magnesium Citrate for a cleanse?

Thanks so much. Good luck with your protein and liquids!!

Thank you so much. I will.

Glad you guys are doing well and slowly on the mend. Please be thinking about me tomorrow when I have my revision surgery.

Good Luck with your Surgery tomorrow! I know you'll do great!!! Thanks so much!! Nervous, but also excited.

After completing all of the requirements and recommendations, I now have a surgery date of November 20th. Less than 4 weeks away until my band to gastric sleeve revision surgery!! Woo hoo!!!

Surgery is tomorrow for me!!!

We did the same thing!!! My surgery is in 2 days on November 20th and I started my pre-op diet on November 7th. Since I would miss Thanksgiving my mother-in-law was kind enough to fix it ahead of time for me and we ate it on Halloween. My last meal before starting the pre-op diet was pizza. My last solid meal before I started all Clear liquids for the next 2 days came last night when I ate an apple...which I had been eyeing all week. lol.

I am currently on Day 12 of my Pre-Op diet and have had to stay between 500-700 calories daily. Actually, today and tomorrow I am only on Clear liquids as my surgery is on Friday. I will say that the first 3 days were the hardest and each day got a little better after that. Of course I was still hungry, but it did get better. Good luck to you!!
