February 27th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Feb. 12th

I am February 6th, don’t have a time yet! I started my pre-op today. But I guess my pre-op diet isn’t like everyone else’s. For the first week I just have to replace one meal a day with a protein shake, high protein meals, and I can’t have any carbs. {carbs in fruits and veggies is fine, just no bread, pasta, chips, etc.}. For the second week it’s two shakes a day, one high protein dinner. Then the day before surgery is all liquids. I guess I have it easy compared to some people!




Hope you’re doing well!!

I’m scheduled for the 16th and I am on day 2 of my liquid diet. Today has been quite rough. I’m allowed 3 optifast a day and broth, unsweet tea, sugar free jello and sugar free popsicles.




Well I’m on day 5 and so far it hasn’t gotten easier a week and two days left til surgery day!

I'm on day 1, it was fine until this afternoon... then I felt soooo hungry! 13 days to go[emoji53] lol

I'm on day two and it actually hasn't been as hard as I thought, and my doctor is extremely strict on what I'm allowed to have. Full liquid. 3 shakes a day sup lamented with broth, unsweetened juices/drinks. Two meals a week. I'm starting to freak out a bit though my OCD is kicking in and I'm already itching to pack for the hospital.

Feb 13th at 10am, original date was Dec 20th but I got super sick, my face got swollen. I'm ok now and can't wait

Two meals a week? Like what?

I'm just wondering, cause my surgeon might need to talk to your surgeon.
I'm on day 5 of 2 week liquid diet and all I can think about is pizza.

I just went and bought frozen Atkins meals, he said high protein low carb. (Ex- 4 oz of chicken and a cup of broccoli or spinach sautéed with garlic)

oh man! thats heaven!

my surgery is feb 13, 2018. I go for my final weigh in on Monday. Nervous about the surgery and apparently quite smelly at the moment. This is normal/ketosis I guess. The shakes taste so bad. Been on two weeks of them and haven't cheated at all
