November 11th is my surgery. Anyone have theirs around then? I start my prep on Halloween. Protein Shakes 4 times a day for 10 days & 2 cups of veggies which are optional. What is everyone else's prep diet?

3 to 5 Protein Shakes a day, Clear Liquids all day, no coffee, no alcohol, none of the liquids should be over 5 calories per saving and have no carbs. Can have sugar free Jello made from box and 2 cups of broth, or 1/2 cup Tomato juice, and can have sugar free popsicles. Diet _as for 14 days.

My surgery is the 10th. I have two weeks of shakes 3 a day with 2 cups veg. Today is day 3. I do not enjoy the shakes but i made a great veg Soup with curry for dinner which was great. Good luck for your surgery!

My surgery is the 9th and I'm on day 3 of the pre-op diet. I choke down 3 shakes and 1 Ketogenics bar per day. I hate this phase but I know it's what I has to happen for a successful procedure!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
