Hi everyone. I wanted to share with you guys every step of the way in my journey.

My pre op diet started yesterday and I am happy to say the first day was great. I did not struggle much, when I was cooking for my kids my mouth did water a little but it wasn’t too bad.

My numbers so far

Hi guys updating on my journey my surgery is in 8 days!!! My pre op hasn’t been that bad, for thanksgiving it was! I ate a bit more that I should have but I am back on track giving it my best. I am trying to avoid food because I feel like pinching little pieces so I try to avoid when I can.

Hi Mary I am sooooo exited! Only 5 more days and then is surgery time!!! How are you doing with your pre op diet? It gets difficult sometimes!

I'm on December 5th, too:) Pre-op diet is ROUGH...but I'm making in. Wishing everyone a safe procedure and a good outcome!

Heloooo everyone today is the Day!!! I am supper exited my pre op diet was great I lost 19 lbs! I am very happy it was hard but worth it. I am ready at home just waiting for my husband to take a shower and get ready. We are leaving for the hospital around 5:30-5:45. They want me there at 6:30 and is 30mins away, I want to be a little early in case anything delays us. I will keep you all updated on how I am feeling. Good luck to all of you getting surgery today!!!

Good luck today!

Ok soooooooo I am sleeved! The surgery was a success, I had a hernia repair also. I am doing good. The pain is there it gets better jute strong with certain movements but laying down is almost none existing. I have some nausea especially when I move or if I sip water and I have not been able to pee but will try again later. The hospital and staff are wonderful. I couldn’t be happier with my choice of surgeon and setting

Hello everyone. Update! I am home the pain is better I never thought I would be so happy to pass gas! After my first meal my bowels started “waking up” and I generated a lot of gas that I couldn’t pass, this made me get bloated and was pushing against my incisions and inner wound and hurt a lot but once I was able to pass gas it was a relief. I’m keeping my liquids down ok and my nausea is very minimal. I was able to get up and go to the bathroom, even take a shower all by myself today

My surgery is December 14, I have been on the pre-op diet for 9 days. The first week I was told I could eat a salad for lunch without meat, drink plenty of water (I'm using Crystal Lite lemonade, I love it), low sodium chicken broth, J-ello and 2 protein shakes. Now I'm just on liquids and I don't find it hard at all. On Sunday I went out for dinner with my husband and ordered a salad with grilled chicken, so I guess I kinda cheated that day but that was it. Today I called my insurance company and I was told that I got approved. I'm so excited.

How are you doing?

Ooookkkk update! Tried egg today (according to my surgeons office I am in purés and scrambled egg and cottage cheese don’t need to be puréed) well it didn’t go down that well. I feel a little nauseous and a bit of stomach pain. Will try it later on but for now I’m going to avoid it
