I am so excited!!!!!! April 23rd- pre-op what should I expect? And how long am I going to stay in the hospital???

Good luck honey! I have pre op today keep me posted!!!

Thank you. I have been posting my experiences on the thread my journey starting with pre op diet. Let me know how your doing.

Im on day 3 of my preop liquid diet. I have a three week one :'( I've talkd to my dietician all day today because of concers of not getn enough calorie intake. I was only getn between 450-500 calories i was informed I should be at 1000 calories a day... today I did 600 & something. I dont see me being able to get 1000 calories off soups, water and 100 calorie protein shakes.

Basically as soon as i woke up i was asked to wAlk around. Then do a bariatric swallow.. Then i was gone!

Surgery was totally worth it! 3 months post op and nearly down 40lbs. Slower than they want but i dont care.

Let me know if i can answer any questions for you. I was addicted to this app before surgery

Happy Friday. My surgery date is May 1st as well. I am not looking forward to the pre op diet.

Congrats! That's 3 of us now having surgery on May 1st. Pre op diet sucks, but I have been dropping weight so I can't complain. When do you start your pre op diet? I have to do two weeks pre op diet.

I am starting the pre op diet on Wednesday. What are you drinking for yours? Any suggestons ?

I know how you feel. I already have an anxiety disorder and thinking about all this makes it worse. I can say that the liquid diet has gotten easier. I use to see food commercials and practically drool. Now it's like that looks good, but I know I can't have that.
