im scheduled to be sleeved on december 20th! i weighed myself yesterday & i am down 15lbs! this 2 week diet is hard but i guess it truly has been teaching me self control. lord knows i want to rub to the cheesecake factory but thats all in my mind because my stomach isnt asking for it. lol.

HOW MUCH WEIGHT DID YOU LOSE???

What does your pre op diets consist of? My doctor said I only have to do clear liquids the day before surgery, but I would like to do a pre op diet to lose 20 pounds before surgery. I'm planning on having it done sometime in January.

My Doc's normal routine is 1 to 2 weeks of a shake for breakfast and lunch. Then a small dinner of maybe fish or salad followed by 2 days clear fluid before surgery. I ended up with 3 weeks on the preop and stayed highly disciplined at 3 shakes per day period. I drank 1 to 2 gals of water or crystal lite daily to keep my stomach full. This is but just one way the Docs go about the diet, each is different.

I started my pre-op diet full liquids on sept 20 my surgery date is sept 27 as if today Sunday I'm already down 7 lbs , I haven't really been that hungry and when I feel the need to chew I eat a SF Popsicle.. I'm a little anxious and nervous for this up coming week knowing I'm on the count down ????

Good luck to you Ready! My date is 10/11/12-the time is going slow and fast at the same time, if you know what I mean! I wish I could do 3 shakes a day-great discipline! I'm hungry on the 2 shakes and 1 lean and green plus 2 fruits (apple,pear citrus only-berries, sparingly)! I'm thinking of only having fish or eggs with lots of veggies until my liquid Pre-op diet (starting on the 5th). I've lost 14 pounds since my Nutrition. Appt. 8/15/12, but I have a lot to lose and I'm anxious to get started! I'm hoping to go down 2 sizes for Thanksgiving. I already bought a cute dress to wear 2 sizes smaller than I am right now as incentive! Keep us posted on your surgery and recovery!

Hi Readytobeslim, we are on the same schedule. same surgery date, Pre-op diet same schedule and I'm down 7lbs too! Wishing you a smooth surgery and healthy recovery.

Hey Jazeeja .. I'm getting nervous now , I'm down 10 lbs already and tomorrow is clear liquids .. I hope all goes well with your surgery and wish you a speedy recovery :-)

My preop diet was only 1 day so I don't think there was much of a loss.

I did set a goal of 47-lbs loss during the 6 month supervised diet plan and was proud of myself for surpassing it and losing 63.

Good luck.
