I know there is already an Oct group but would anyone be interested in a day specific group so we can all post each day how we are doing?

I only have to do a liquid diet 2 days prior to surgery and milk of magnesia for 2 days, also.

@@4melulu44, mine is the 27th, too!! We're sleeve sisters!!

I had my pre-op appointment on Wednesday and I 'only' have to do the pre-op diet for 10 days: 3 shakes a day (Vanilla Bariatric Advantage) that I can mix with Water, almond milk, or low-fat milk; 2 plain non-fat yoghurts of no more than 100 calories each, and sugar-free jell-o or ice lollies to snack on if I feel like it.

I'll switch to Clear liquids only 48 hours before the surgery, have 2tbsp of milk of magnesia the day before, and nothing to eat or drink from midnight on the 20th until the 22nd by the sounds of it: my surgery is scheduled for the afternoon of the 21st.

The advice I got was no caffeine or alcohol at least 24 hours before, but I already cut both out earlier this week. I'm also avoiding carbonated drinks (even though I could have anything sugar-free if I felt like it), to get used to the post-op restriction.

So far (1 day!!), so good :mellow: but I did notice that every other ad on TV seems to be for food :blink:
