Surgery is November 12th, preop diet starts October 28th, what about you? I'd LOVE someone to suffer with hahaha

I am having my surgery in Ypsilanti I live just east of Lansing

Just got my insurance approval !! So excited I teared up!! Waiting on the scheduler to call me back to set a date!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Here's to better health!!

I am really hoping to have surgery in November. I had a followup this Friday. So far I have lost 16.4 pounds of the 50 pounds the doctor wants me to lose. I have been on the pre-op diet for 11 days now. I was last weighed on day 6. I hope to get these last pounds off fast. I don't know how much more of the liquid diet I can take.

my pre-op starts the 28th as well! My surgery is on the 12th....4 weeks from today!

Hello and welcome! Everyone's Pre-Op diet seems to be different. I know that when I had my last appt with the surgeon is when he told me what i would be having on my 2 week diet. Gave me options of different protein drinks that I will have to drink for those 2 weeks. Good luck!

Hello soonerorlater, and thanks for the information. I will find out everything on the 28 of Oct. Was Unjury protein drinks one of your options?

My coordinator emailed me today and said she was going to submit my ppwk by Thursday and it generally takes 15 business days for a response. Uggggh! Anticipation.!!!!
