I have 5 days left before I get my sleeve. I have been doing well on my pre-op diet and it has not been as difficult as thought. I have lost 39lbs since June 2, 2010 and I am know that my doctor will be very suprised when I weigh in on July 2, 2010.

Wow...way to go on the pre-op weight loss! You're rocking it already!

DANG. Go ahead with your baaad self. Seriously excellent job. Question. Are you saying you will have been on your preop diet for a month when you have your surgery? If so that is awesome!!!! Best of wishes for a smooth operation and a speedy recovery. I see you're very dedicated to this new lifestyle and I feel you will do great. Keep us updated.

What was your pre-op diet like? It certainly looks like it worked! I'm just starting my 2-week pre-op diet (2 shakes and an Atkins-type dinner). I hope I can lose as much as you--our BMIs are pretty close.

I was given the protein shakes on June 2, 2010. I started using the shakes the next day just so I could get in a routine. I did not use the shakes constantly until two weeks before my surgery. I am glad I started early because my BMI was very high.

I am with the Davis Clinic and they have their own version of the protein shake. It works very well and it has all the vitamins and minerals that I need.
