Have surgery scheduled for May 20th. I have lost 52 lbs on my pre op diet. Since getting my surgery date 1 1/2 weeks ago I'm on this crazy food binge!!! I haven't gained any lbs back, but everything is out the window!! So today I'm liquid fasting on protein shakes to start over. But already ate 10 potato chips! :/ why am I doing this to my self!! Did I mention I also being lazy in the work out dept. I went from being a pre op rock star, to a hot mess!!!!!!!! Help!

Oh ok. I have the federal BSBC and they required a three-month trial. The surgeon Nut said I couldn't gain any weight during that time which ended April 1; however, since then I have put on 10 lbs ugh. I honoring I will lose at least 10 lbs during the 7-day pre-op liquid phase.

Thanks

I was lucky. I have BCBS and no diet or weight requirements were needed beyond the 6 months of Nut and dr visit. I had several last meals....and was told to go ahead and do that!

@sparklingbeauty

Maybe mine doesn't either and that requirement is coming from the surgeon?

I worried a little! I ended up losing another 10lbs right before my surgery. So I pulled off a 60lb loss for my 4 month pre op diet! I did it!! It was very hard!! But I'm glad I did it! Hang in there!
