    Does anyone else NOT have a pre-op diet? Like, at all. I just think it's weird :/

    Eek it's right around the corner to October! I love knowing there are other people going though the same progress as me!

    I'm having doubts, I told my husband that on Monday I'm canceling again (we went through this last weekend) but now it's Monday I've decided to not cancel. When I choose to have the surgery I know no matter what I needed to stand by that choice come he'll or high Water. So even though I want to cancel because of my fears I won't.

    I fear that I won't lose any weight at all, which is almost impossible but I feel like I'll be that 0.1% who doesn't lol

    Good luck everyone. Hope your all going well xx

    I used Circle Of Care in 2007 for my Lap Band and last year when I had the emergency surgery to have it removed because it slipped.

    I decided to go a different route this time. A whole new team.

    He is one of the most experienced Doctors in this field so you'll be in good hands! Have you started your pre-op diet yet?

    That's a great idea...I've been thinking of adding a protein drink per day but I don't want to get sick of them before surgery lol :)

    I'm so excited for you. I've been hoarding food in readiness including jelly packets, Soups etc. I start my pre op diet on the 7th October. I will be interested to see how you go with your surgery.

    @@anm1979 that is amazing!! Maybe I'll implement that type of diet starting this week - it'll be way less of a shock when day before surgery is nothing but liquids.
