Are any of you starting your pre surgical weight loss diet? I start mine Sunday

I'm told I will likely only need to do a 24 hour pre-op diet. I guess I'll know for sure at the pre-op appt 8/4. Sounds like most of you have to do longer though. I wonder why that is?
My surgeon stated that it's to give the liver time to shrink, making it easier for them to manipulate laparoscopicly during the surgery.

It is time for an update. Today is day 5/14 in the land of preop. The best thing I've done is conquer evening "hanger" (yup, this is the anger I feel over watching others eat when I cannot). Every grocery purchased was a part of a recipe someone else in the family can make. Sweet peace is in the house again!!!!! Pokemon GO has also helped with activities that distract from the daily ho-hum. Life is going well!! It is great seeing y'alls progress too. It is great having peeps to go through this journey with.

Hello ladies! I'd love surgery buddies! The big day is 8/8! My pre-op labs are 7/28. I started my Protein diet yesterday. It's not a liquid diet so I'm a little worried. Anyway, I'm excited!

@@Shrinkinqtpi Awesome!how's everything going for you so far? 14 days until the 10!I'm feeling a little week this morning and have a slight headache. The diet wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have drug reps bringing stuff every 5 min and all these meetings with catered food. I actually started yesterday and today is day 2!....

@@MrsMonroe you are a busy woman by profession. Being strong has to be tough with all of the temptations around. This is the 6th day and I'm having dreams of avocado blended into my Protein shake and spoonfuls of ricotta. Our count down will go fast. We just have to be strong.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
