So I get a call this afternoon that without my permission they have changed my surgery from Sept 30 to the 18th! Before I can even say no, that's impossible for me, the hospital calls for pre-surgical testing! I cannot possibly do it until the 27th or later because of work. So, I have to call back and fix this mess tomorrow. I haven't even gotten my cardiology clearance or PCP clearance done yet!!! I just started my pre-op diet on Monday. I finally made it down to the next 10 lb increment on the scale and I am sooooo excited about that because it took a little while.

I am doing fine with a shake before work, then one for lunch. It's quick, and I really don't mind the taste. It's the texture that bugs me if I let it sit for too long. It almost congeals to a slime.

I am exhausted this week, and I can't tell if it's just from school starting or this pre-op diet. It's probably both. I have more energy over all during the day, but when I wake in the morning, I feel like a didn't really sleep well. After work, I am just pooped.

So sorry that happened to you! I was supposed to have surgery tomorrow and practically starving myself for a week to learn that they changed the surgery until Friday. Now I'm bummed !

Anyone else having bad breath on the pre-op diet? Even after I brushed as usual, my daughter said my breath stunk, and I've been having an odd taste in my mouth.

It is most likely because your body is going into ketosis. It is when you are eating less carbs and consuming more Protein. It can cause bad breath. It will go away!!:) Your body is now burning fat for energy!

Just 12 hours until surgery. It almost doesn't seem real. Ready to be on the other side. My pre-op diet was pretty lenient so it wasn't terrible. I hope there will not be too much pain after.

I am looking forward to seeing how everyone is doing after surgery!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
