Well, the it's finally the 11th.

My pre-op diet is officially started. I kind of wish I had a better "last meal". Haha

I'm pretty excited about it though because it means I'm one step closer to the surgery.

Wish me luck!

:D

Good luck! Rooting for you!

Good luck! Ive been on my pre-op diet for 9 days now... And I've lost 9 pounds! Pretty cool. What's your diet consist of? I just have to eat high Protein and low, low carb. I usually have a couple Protein shakes during the day and then a high protein dinner. Not too shabby.

Good luck! When's the surgery?

Thanks so much guys!

I'm on the high Protein, low carb diet as well. For Breakfast, I just fixed 2 eggs and 3 slices of Canadian Bacon. I imagine I'll be having a lot of that during the next 2 weeks, as well as chicken and tuna. Haha I'm not too creative with food. I just feel lucky that I'm not on the Clear liquids diet that some people have to go on.

The surgery is on the 25th. Only 14 days, I can't believe it's almost here!

Good Luck on your Post-Op diet, Keep your eyes on the prize!

Good Luck!!!

I am happy you get to eat. I had to do 2 weeks of protein shakes only and it sucked!

First surgeon visit and my doc just put me on the 1000 cal diet, what I notice it is all fat free, I have 3 mo medically supv program prior to surgery, I underatd the fat free for the liver thing...What I didn't see is any eggs or egg beaters and was wondering why, I can live off them and thought it was good protein.. anyone?

Thank you Diva and Jen!

I guess your doctor is aiming for fat free food instead of low carb? I think eggs have a high percentage of calories from fat but that isn't saying a lot since there isn't a lot of calories in eggs to begin with. In my opinion, eggs are the perfect food for this kind of diet because of all the Vitamins and nutriets it has, as well as, high Protein, and 0g of carbs. I guess you could always ask your doctor if you're allowed to have them.
