I am the 17th.....i have to do preop for 7 days

I just had my pre-op NUT appointment. She went over my pre-op diet, and my step-by-step post-op diet. I start my pre-op diet tomorrow. I also made all of my appointments through August. :)

I have my pre op appt Friday and I'm hoping the doc gives me a binder with food guidelines and stuff so I don't have to rely solely on the Internet lol.

My pre op appointment was yesterday. I made all payments and also signed all concents. It's so good to hear the girls in the office say "see you after your surgery!" My surgeon gave me a binder and all guidelines to follow before and after surgery on my first appointment with him. They also gave me a bunch of free samples of vitamins and protein shakes/suppstitue

Started my pre-op diet on Monday (op on 16th Feb). I'm starrrrrrving! Think it's my worst day so far. Sorry for the whinge. I know it's to help everything be nice & detoxed but it's hard. 3 shakes & dinner is 2 cups of green vegetables. not happy but weirdly happy the journey is starting too! Sorry for the download.

Starting my pre op diet on Thursday! Mine is only liquids for 7 days...I don't know how I'm gonna make it through!

Only 10 days away for me!!! :)

Only 3 more days!!! Eeeeek!

How is it only 3 days away?! What is everyone doing to prepare? I have my personal hygiene stuff, and meds they asked me to bring, all packed up. A billion lists written..

I wrote a list but that's it so far lol. I do have all of my protein and vitamins in my own personal cupboard. I don't have to do a pre op diet but I'm putting myself on all liquids starting tmrw.

This is my clear liquid day #2. Only two days away! Surprisingly my nerves haven't went up yet! I'm slowly making a list as I still have to work until day of surgery and also start back up a week after. :/ but I am a cash pay so I have to make money! I'm so excited to start my new lifestyle with all of you!!!

Surgery tomorrow!!!!! Leaving today.....not nervous at all. Ready to get it over!

We should all get a little fb group going for ourselves since we'll all be at exactly the same point :)

I think a secret fb group is a good idea. Is anyone else interested?
