May 16th. Starting pre-op diet on 5/2. Getting nervous!!

I'm so glad I don't have a strict pre op diet. I have lost about 6 lbs in 1 1/2 weeks just not eating bread, rice and pasta. That's all my dr requires.

My surgery is on May 24th. I will have a 2 week pre-op liver reduction diet. I am excited but nervous. I have only today a few people, most of which have been amazingly supportive and understanding. I can't wait to officially be on the losers bench!

LadyClair I just got my date this morning and I'm May 10 as well!!! I have my pre op apt on Monday. Luckily no liquid diet for me but I'm getting anxious and excited!!

Hi Surgery Buddy! I had my pre-op appointment today with the nurse and nutritionist and for lab work. My appointment with the Dr is also on Monday! I'm super excited, first day on liquid diet - so far so good. How long does your doctor keep you off work? Mine is 3 wks. I just can't even picture what I will look like by Christmas, maybe I actually won't mind having my picture taken! Isn't it fun to think about all the things that will be different?

My Pinterest is the same. Makes me want to cry. I'm not pre op yet but I'm still trying my best to behave

Oh my gosh I'm so excited I can't stand it!! My goal weight is 140 so I need to lose about 115 lbs. My dr said he expects me to lose all of that and possibly more which I can't really even fathom! I feel super lucky that I don't have to do the pre op liquid diet. And they didn't give me a specified amount of time to stay out of work. The lady I talked to today to schedule my surgery said 2 weeks but since I don't have a physically strenuous job I may be ready to go back after 1 week... But that if my job isn't being supportive he'd sign Leave papers for however long I wanted lol Where are you located? I'm in Atlanta. So many questions!!!
