I am 8 days on the pre-op diet it has not been nearly as bad as I feared, only a couple of days have i thought "if I could just cheat this little bit" but I have been good. I think it's hard because I have a husband and 4 kids to cook for and we have family dinners so while i have my skimpy dinner their having my home cooked meal, but really it's been head hunger to battle and that even hasn't been to bad.

5 days to surgery! can't wait I'll keep you guys in my thoughts and wishing you the best, everyone, and me too will all do great.

I'm on my pre-op diet and I'm allowed to eat real food up until I wake up on Wednesday morning. Wednesday and Thursday I'm on Clear Liquids only and I have my surgery Friday. All pre-op diets depend on surgeon preference.

And by real food I mean Protein and vegetables(certain low carb ones) and no starches

Protein Shakes for Breakfast and lunch and then 200-400 calorie t.v. dinner so basically 800 cals. a day. since I've decided to get the band I am only cooking healthy meals, for me I will only be succesful if its a lifestyle change even my kids have and husband has lost weight. we're all being more active and I've cut almost all carbs and my DH doesn't get heartburn anymore. we've been doing this for a month but it feels really good!

I wish you the best of luck on your journey!

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
