My surgery is on July 9, 2014. Pre-op diet starts on the 25th. I am not going to lie, since I found out my surgery date, I have been having food funerals!! You name it I have had it. Just to remember the taste. My Bday is on the 27th of July and I had my birthday cake yesterday. Figures right. Well I am tired of it all. The food has me feeling sick and I ready to start my pre-op diet. I am ready for my new life on the 9th.

Hey ladies! So, only about 3 more weeks for me and I start my pre-op liquid diet on the 25th. My pre op diet is standard across the board for everyone. My surgery is also a revision from sleeve to bypass. How is everyone feeling right now? I'm excited for sure!

Im super excited. Have a month to go. My appetite is raging and I just wanna get it over with before I gain a hundred pounds lol. Stress eating. Am having fun buying things like a kitchen scale, 2 oz freezer safe containers for food, popsicle molds so I can have unlimited popsicles during preop and those first few weeks that sound so tough.

Hope you are all doing well :-)

Well you could make your own diet. Maybe two Meal Replacement shakes per day, couple of healthy Snacks and one healthy high Protein meal. Lots of Water. I guess run it by the dr tho

OK, I just finished my pre-op testing! Squeee!! The nurse said I had "perfect" blood pressure. LOL Yes, that and crappy knees, a dodgy hip, swollen feet/ankles, high cholesterol, heat rash everywhere, etc., etc., etc. I just have the nutritionist tomorrow and a last once over with my PCP and then it's on to the OR. Feeling excited and nervous and just plain ready to get this show on the road. :P

I have to do the liquid diet for 2 weeks pre-op. They make everyone do it, even tho I don't need to lose even close to what other people need to lose. Mines a revision but they're still making me do it. *sigh* but I will because I follow directions.

Good luck to all! July is only 1 week away!!

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!
