Second day of liquid diet. Not so bad yet. Made it to the gym last night. We will see if I make it tomorrow.




I am very lucky to not have a all liquid pre op diet. I give you props haha I have a Protein Shake for Breakfast then a snack which is either a Protein Bar or Greek yogurt and then lunch is a Protein shake and then I get another snack then for dinner it's 6 ounces of lean protein, 1 cup of cooked vegetables(2 cups if raw) and 1/2 cup of a starch then one more protein shake before bed if I'm hungry! Good luck though! The 26th will be here before we know it![emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

I have 1 more nutrition appointment....how long after that did you find out? when did you start all of your pre-op things? I had to do 6 months of nutrition and of course the general other tests. all my tests came back perfect..and now this 1 appointment is next week. just wondering how soon I can expect a date.

My doctor said they do this to shrink the liver. Also to prepare you for the liquid diet after surgery. After the first day I was pretty sure my liver was going to be the size of a pea by my surgery date! Actually it hasn't been all that bad after the first few days.

The hard part is being around everyone else that is eating food that smells wonderful. [emoji23]

I got the call yesterday that my insurance approved my vsg surgery for april 26th! I am so excited! I just want these next 4 weeks to speed up haha anyone else have a surgery date of 4/26?

I'm on the 26th too! I'm beyond excited I thought my documentation wouldn't be enough (the wording on my pulmonary note was a little weird at first) but it was approved right away! It's been 8months of weigh ins and consults, I'm so glad that's over.

So my surgeon had something come up and is canceling all his surgeries on Wednesday the 26th and the earliest they could reschedule me was for June 7th. I'm so mad and frustrated

Second day of liquid diet. Not so bad yet. Made it to the gym last night. We will see if I make it tomorrow.

Tomorrow will be a week on the liquid diet and I am down 11 pounds. I have also managed to get to the gym 3 times also. Kept my normal exercises and weights the same. But the sets and reps are down a lot.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
