Hey everyone I'm just days away from having to start my pre op diet on Thursday. My surgery is Oct 6th and I was wondering if anyone else is or has done anything special for their last real meal before the pre op diet started. I know I am. On Wendesday my husband and a I are getting my favorite calamari and a pasta dinner with a bottle of my favorite wine, oh yeah I'm getting a dessert (sharing) since I'm probably not gonna be eating anything like this anytime soon if ever again ! What about you ??

Good luck! I am the 12th also...lets keep in touch

So I am almost through day 2 of my 14 day liquid diet. It's not easy but I am looking ahead!

SInce I started my pre op liquid the day before Thanksgiving I did a 4 day gulf coastal food tour topped off with Thanksgiving dinner 4 days early!

Whats even funnier is that I remember exactly what I ate. LOL

Day 1 Clearwater Beach / Grouper Sandwhich / adult frozen concoctions

Day 2 Panama City / Oysters, Shrimp, crab cakes / Jamaican Rum

Day 3 Biloxi / Jumbalya, Buffalo Shrimp, Fries, steak / wine

Day 4 At home with Family for traditional Thanksgiving DInner

Day 5 Pre Op testing / Spaghetti for dinner (somehow didnt gain more than 1 lp on the food tour

Day 6 Mexican lunch with work friends / Last supper of chicken wings!

Day 7 Started Pre Op Diet

Day 8 went to friends so my hubby could eat another Thanksgiving DInner....I drank my Optifast and Water

So I am almost through day 2 of my 14 day liquid diet. It's not easy but I am looking ahead!

Luckily I am having chicken and veggies at dinner, that helps. I did have a spoonful of Peanut Butter later than evening. I figure it's Protein...it did help. I have been going to bed super early and that has helped with the night tummy rumbling. My energy is low, but that is to be expected. Onward!

I am finding that my energy is low as well. I went out to walk my dog and had to take rests and sit down. I'm sure it's the liquid diet. I am on day 3! I made a chicken soup last night and just had the broth. It was yummy and the warm soup was soothing. I just keep looking forward.
