Tell me about it, I sometimes stop and try to think of what I can eat now that I won't be able to for a long time :rolleyes:

BTW, today I went for my chest X-Ray, blood work (11 tubes :wacko:), and EKG, then abd. US on the 17th and I'm all done with my pre-op testing. Soooo excited!!!!! :lol:

My surgical group has you go on a pre-op diet to lose 5-10% of total body weight, to show that you are dedicated to making the post-op changes required for long term success. Also they have told us (my sister-in-law) and I are making this journey together) if we gain any before surgery, we are OUT! :(

I had to do a 2 week liquid diet before my band was put in too, but no diet for the bypass, so I just eat :/

I know there are several things I would love to have before surgery but with my NUT being so strict I don't wanna risk surgery being cancelled :(

Believe me, I would go on a Water diet if I had to! This surgery will be a blessing in our lives, nothing is worth it getting cancelled :)
