Hello all! I've been reading the forum for the past couple of months, thank you all for the great advice and sharing your experiences. It's been very helpful and informative! I met with the surgeon a week ago today, my surgery date is June 26. Anyone else for June?

Me too I started ore op diet today.

It was hard at work someone brought in Krispy cream donuts. I just drank my shake. So want this to work.

Just had my pre op with my surgeon. Usual questions and instructions.

I did ask him about the pre op diet and he said the ONLY purpose is to shrink the liver. He said "big boys" and some ladies get really fatty livers and it makes the surgery more difficult. He said the diet can shrink the liver up to 50-75%.

He said he didn't expect me (I am lower bmi) to have that problem, so that's good.

He also advised that I continue all meds after surgery (high bp, thyroid, asthma) just one at a time...no gulping!

I also got my surgery time for the 25th...7:30 am! I will be his first case, so am happy about that.

I start pre op diet tomorrow and have PAT next Monday. It's all happening very quickly now!

Good luck to folks for this week!!!

Where have you found sugar free fudge sicles?? I have found 'no sugar added' but no sugar free... Would love some chocolate!!!

It is funny how every Dr has a different formula for success(LOL)-- mine is pretty rigid but I'm trying to follow it as best I can. So far just have some trouble getting all fluids in for day (min 60 oz).

I got my sugar free fudge sickles and pop sickles at Aldi's!!! Cheap and good!

I start my preop tomorrow too! And what is a PAT?

I was wondering the same thing! What's a pat?
