Started two week pre-op diet today. shakes and 2-4 cups veggies from a list only. My well seasoned cucumbers were fabulous. Less excited about the shakes. It is only two weeks though. I can do this! ?

Wishing everyone’s time flys until all of our surgery dates!

You've got this!!!

Maryeuh what shakes are you using? I am happy for you

my surgery date is july 20 but i dont see my dr again until the 7th. they haven't mentioned anything about a pre op diet yet. i'm wondering if i will have to start the following day. anyone have a pre op diet less than 14 days? anyone else getting nervous? i know its a good thing but im starting to get more nervous.

So I am using premier shakes. And premier protein water. I am also sipping bone broth. The shakes are good especially the apple cinnamon and oats flavor, my saving grace.

I got them on amazon. I just got maple oats and café latte deleivered today. I cant wait to try them tomorrow. They really have a variety so you don't get bored. I also got millies sipping broth for times when I need something savory. Its been a week and I have lost 5 pounds.

I’ve completed all my requirements, submitted for insurance approval, and received my approval letter last week! Looks like I will be sleeved JULY 6th!! I go Tuesday, June 23rd to finalize everything with my doc and pre-register at the hospital. I’m so excited! I can’t believe it’s finally happening!!

True. Soon as I decided to take the leap and get the surgery I knew I need the support for before, during and after. I am so glad I found this place and you guys!
