Surgery on sept 29...currently on day two of preop diet doctor wants me on

Im on the diet trying to stick to it...have 8 more days to go... Other than feeling like being hit by a mac truck i think im doing ok. Now if only my mom would pay attention to the instruction sheet and stop tempting me with foods i should not have.. Lol

I got the shake mix the vanilla flavor and many different flavor extracts so that i can have variety of flavors... Which actually have saved me in morning with mint flavoring.. Also have almond, raspberry, anise, hazelnut, coconut, vanilla, orange, peppermint... Now the sheet says that extracts are allowed, but i did notice that all extracts have different levels of alcohol in them... Now this may be a dumb question should i ignore those levels?

You've done great mouse! Not long to go for you now.

My surgery is tommorow eek!

Good luck everyone with your upcoming surgeries! May God bless you with fast recoveries and smooth sailing. My revision from lap band to sleeve is Nov. 5 and can't wait yo get this lap band out. The lap band was a nightmare. I can't wait to get the sleeve!

Definitely interesting how pre op diets vary. Here is what I was given. post-259662-14433594363281_thumb.jpg

Hi my date is also 29sep , I'm on liquids only and in the UK ,I wish I could just munch on a carrot or something ???????? I'm sooo hungry

how is the liquid diet going Iam 11 days post op and would love some crunch I am also in the U.K. Scotland keep up the good work : )

Hi my op is on wed , I'm really scared now and I feel this weeken has felt like he first few days of the liquied diet again it's been so hard maybe coz I know I only got mon and tues To go , how you doing ?

How you are feeling is natural I was very scared, nervous and distracted the last few days but out the other side and healing well concentrating on getting my protein and water in. Moving to pureed food was scary too as a few of the protein shakes caused dumping too much sugar. Are you on mfp I am tracking my food there. Taysidebell if you want to follow. Please look at the blog below I found good recipes there

Good luck to you all today X

@@clairemayx same here. Mine is on the 29th and I've been sick since last Monday. My Doctor said to still come in for surgery and see how I'm doing then. If it's to bad then we would have to reschedule.

Riley053, how are you feeling? Were you able to have your surgery done?

Hugs dear!
