So I started my pre-op diet today. It consists of 2 Protein shakes, 1 meal with 4 oz of lean protein and 1 cup non starchy vegetables and a mid morning mid afternoon and bedtime protein snack.

I really hope I can make it through this. I haven't received my approval yet from insurance, but they said I should hear this week. I started the diet anyway to ensure I got my full 2 weeks in before my surgery on December 22nd.

Fingers crossed!

December 22nd is my birthday! Obviously you're going to have good luck that day.

And I know this pre op diet stinks and feels really hard, but it gets easier. You can do it! All your hard work will pay off in a fantastic way in the end. Keep your chin up and your determination strong.

You're lucky! All i can have 2 weeks before surgery is clear, sugar free liquids and 3 protein shakes a day! I got my insurance approval today, surgery on Jan 5th! Good luck!!!!
