Got my date. September 24th. Nervous and excited, scared and in disbelief. I have my prep on the 18th. Haven't been told to start a liquid diet yet......do most? Why weren't you? Should I call and ask about it? I suspect that they would have told me already, but it don't know.

IDP2014, my date is the same. I began pre op diet today. I hunkered down and had a low key Friday night. Followed it well though. I have a box of no sugar added carnation Breakfast vanilla and added to a Decaf coffee I purchased on this cold wet day. That was good. Tomorrow is watching soccer in the cold. I may repeat the coffee trick but have to figure out a plan to avoid team bonding meal. I will likely bring three books on WLS, and a small cooler.

My doc gave me my pre op and post op instructions months before- when I first started my 3 month preop certification process for insurance.

Everyone has a different experience n different pre op preparations , I would call your doctor and check. Post op diet recommendations all seems to be more similar for everyone, Congrats and Good Luck!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
