Good luck to everyone having surgery today!
did I ask where your surgery will be taking place? are you going have to travel as far as me, an 100 mile,round-trip?.
Good luck to those today. Started my preop diet yesterday and I gotta say I’m pretty happy I’m not not experiencing the inflammation from all the sugar I used to eat all the time buuuuuut found out sausages are evil like epic heartburn. Yeah not going there again. Also my program allows air fryers soooo mmmm. I’ve basically stopped using my crock pot and switched to that appliance specifically

Guys please someone remind me that a preop diet that lets you eat actual food is not I repeat is not a starvation diet I’m supposed to get 1500 calories a day and all the Protein and I have the options of things like protein ice cream and I can have a single actual piece of dark chocolate. I’m exactly 5 weeks from surgery and I’m so impatient and ready

I think it depends on our surgeon. My 2-week pre-op is full liquid. I drink 3 protein shakes and 1 clear protein daily to get 90grams of Protein

All you Last Week of August people-- I regard you as my Almost Surgery,Twins so I'm going to follow your stories. intently just in case I get Last-Minute Collywobbles, oh I Have Been a Brave Little Engine, indeed The Little Engine That Could, but I might feel like I'm derailing as the DAYS get CLOSE! This is the FIRST and I PRAY ONLY TIME I Will,be venturing into OPERATION-ViLLE unless something serious Breaks Down Badly!!! I gotta do THIS and do it GOOD! My very life depends on IT! So be an shining influence on me, show me how it can be done with style and grace, I'll be right on your heels!❤&?your Frustr8

So was I! I had my 5 days post op check up yesterday. It went well, I’m able to drink a little easier now. Couldn’t keep anything down days 1,2. Drinking was painful days 3, and part of 4. Yesterday was much better. Hoping for easier days to come.
How have you been?
Heather_A. I’ve been feeling great! I have my post op next week. I’m keeping things down ok. I sip my shakes, takes me about 45 min to finish 11oz but I don’t want to over do it. How’s the weightloss? I’m down 10lbs since surgery.
