October 11, 201213 yr I am that date two just started the pre-op diet this week, been great so far. Going on the big shopping trip tonight for all the shakes and soups and jello.
October 14, 201213 yr I'm Oct 23rd also. A barrel of mixed emotions...excited and nervous. I've heard over and over again that the pre op diet is the worst. Have to admit, I just ate a small 1/2 cup of chili. But, probably because I didn't eat my shake for lunch, just a cup of broth which was definitely not enough to make the hunger stop. How are you all doing on the pre op? I've lost 5.5 lbs already!! What a great start to my new life
October 14, 201213 yr I am Oct. 23rd also! I started my pre-op diet this last Wednesday and go for hospital pre-op this coming Wednesday! Not hard to stick to pre-op diet during the week...but the weekend is hard! Good luck to all & I hope we can all suppoert each other through our journey
October 14, 201213 yr Hi guys so happy to be here in this forum. I am an October 23rd bandster who can't wait. lost 5 pounds doing my pre op already so so so excited!!!!
October 15, 201213 yr Ok like the opti shakes from heb the double chocolate and been eating jello and soup also. Had one slip this weekend and had a bite of something I shouldn't and I hated it, I thought it was weird my mind has been set on that is unhealthy, which is great and the shakes aren't as bad as I though. I got insurance approved just need the doctor and hospital to agree on the same date, one had the 23 another this Tuesday? Grrrrr
October 15, 201213 yr Hello 23rd bandsters so it's been a week now since I have started up the optiFast and I have lost 5 pounds. hope that's good progress I really hate the soup love the shakes but hate the soup so I replace my soup with go Campbells soup and it's pretty good and I'm still under the 1000 calorie mark each day. anybody else like the soup tell me what I can do to make it better
October 15, 201213 yr So yeah I forgot to mention I did slip up. I had a bologna sandwich which I don't even eat much bologna and a hot dog but I guess I am still showing progress with the 5 pounds I'm going to do better this week.
October 16, 201213 yr I'm Oct 23rd as well started my liquid diet on Saturday been up and down full of different emotions
Who's with me on Oct. 23rd?!??
