I have been so obsessed that my surgery seems so far away that I didn't even realize that I start my pre-op diet in three weeks. Once June is here its going to creep up fast. I am so excited!!

@annymarie Go check out their website. You'll find all kinds of instructions and ideas for how to use their Protein powders.< /p>

Based on my experience, if you get it too hot, it will clump up and not dissolve properly. It doesn't hurt the protein, just makes it clumpy.

I will. thank you.

isn't it funny that most of us including me who have had the 6 month nut visits were annoyed because it seemed so far away at the beginning and now it flew by and we're like omg it came so fast. lol

I almost lost my mind having to do the 6 month diet. I had talked with my insurance and was told I wouldn't have to do it and then I was denied because I hadn't done it. Gggggrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I swear I could have killed someone but now my surgery date is just around the corner, June 3rd. I've fought for this for so long and now that it's here EEEKKK!

29 days to go!! I am not scared or nervous,yet. I have had plenty of surgeries before. I am more worried about drinking that nasty magnesium citrate for bowel prep. I have had the lemon flavor before, trust me its not good. Hoping that grape or cherry has a better taste.

Bowel prep? Hmm I haven't heard anything about that.

Consider yourself lucky if you don't have to do bowel prep. My doctor never mentioned it either, it was in the pre-op paperwork and the handbook. The day before my surgery its nothing but Clear Liquids and a big bottle of magnesium citrate for me. That stuff is a super powerful laxative. I'm going to have a busy day....lol.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
