I just got my surgery date, and it's August 16th! Soooo relieved and happy this is going to happen. Scared too, but determined.


I think that will be my date too, but I still need to confirm. Do you have a 2 week liquid diet too?

Yes, I will have to do the 2 week liquid diet too. I was told it would be two meal-replacing shakes a day and a dinner with strict guidelines (like 4 oz. lean Protein, veggies). Good luck on getting your date!

Congratulations! I'm Aug 22nd but I've know for several weeks. Are you required to do the liquid pre-diet?

What part of England? I studied there for a year during university and have fond memories :)

So I'm not doing it through the NHS (because the waiting list is disastrous) which is why it's like oh doctor meeting was last week and already a date might be set, I do have to do the diet I'm meeting with a dietitian on Tuesday, and she'll be giving me the full run down. I'm in North London, though its cheaper to go as far from central London as possible when you go privet so I'll be having my surgery in Redbridge (about an hour outs). I might end up in the states to stay with family for a bit in September (im a dual national) so I'm excited that so many people are in the states ^_^
Congrats on your date!!!!!! [emoji322][emoji322][emoji322][emoji322]

Anyone who started their pro op diet, what Protein Meal Replacement shakes do you like the best? What other things are you eating on the liquid diet?

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
