October 19, 201510 yr My husband and I will both be having rny surgery on November 30th. I am nervous about starting pre-op diet and afraid I will be so hungry.
October 19, 201510 yr My NUT told me it is hard for the first 2-3 days and then it will be easy peasy.
October 19, 201510 yr Author Maybe my stomach will shrink with less food. I think your right that it will get easier after first few days. My doctor wants me to start pre op diet 11/16. I think I will start 11/1 to have more adjustment time and lose more before surgery. I am 20 lbs up from when I got approved for surgery.....I need to get scale moving the other direction! When is your surgery queen?

October 30, 201510 yr My husband and I will both be having rny surgery on November 30th. I am nervous about starting pre-op diet and afraid I will be so hungry. I am also scheduled 11/30. That is awesome that you and your hubby are both doing the surgery the same day! Who us going first? Are you using the same surgeon? You both will be great support for each other!
October 30, 201510 yr Author My husband and I have the same surgeon. Not sure who will go first... They will tell us the Friday before . it is nice to be on the same pre-op diet and that we will be following same stages of diet post op. My husband is terrified though he won't admit it. He doesn't share feelings as much as I do so I have found this forum useful for Bariatric chats:)
November 2, 201510 yr Hi All. My surgery is Nov 12th. I've been on the 14 day pre op diet for 5 days now. The first day and a half were BAD! After that no hunger at all. I can't believe it myself. It's really not bad at all. Starting today the new problem started...severe diarrhea...UGH!!! I'm on 2 slim fast shakes, 2 premier Protein shakes, and 3oz chicken, turkey or fish. 700-800 calls per day. I'm going to email my nut to see what to do about this issue. ????????????
November 10, 201510 yr Hi there, I am on day two of the all liquid high protein diet. My surgery date is Nov 23rd. I think I'm suffering from caffeine withdrawals as I can't have any caffeine two weeks pre or post surgery. Question; does frozen yogurt count as yogurt?
November 10, 201510 yr It could be your body with drawling from sugar caffeinated beverages carbs. Sugar is really hard to withdrawal from and you should feel better in a couple of days
November 14, 201510 yr Hi My date is the 19th Nov. I'm so excited!!!! A little nervous but trying not to think about it. Just thinking about the day I can go into a regular clothes shop and not feel like the sales assistant is thinking to herself "what the hell is she doing in our shop" "nothing in your size here!" Good luck everyone!
