I am scheduled for 9/14. Looking fellow September surgery buddies!

I’m scheduled for 9/14 as well! I start my liquid diet tomorrow :) 16 days as of today and counting! Edit to include I’m having RNY Bypass :)

Mine is 9/03. So my Oreos diet is just low carb then two days before liquids only. I’m reading on here people have to do a week to two of straight liquids. I’m a little concerned?

My nutritionist said every doctor us different. She started to tell me one doctor's diet then she said his name and I was like that's not my doctor lol. THEN, she told me my doctor wanted 2 WEEKS of only fluids. I was like sorry I said anything. LOL. Don't worry. Whatever your doctor said. Good luck.

HW: 404 lbs.
5/22/20 preop: 377 lbs.
8/29/20 CW: 328.4
9/2/20 Surgery Date

I’m scheduled for the 20th

How come we can’t have caffeine on the liquid diet? I’m 3 days on liquid diet & a horrible headache just started. How long does it usually last? I got really sick in the hot sun securing everything for Hurricane Laura, then anxiety as it became a category 4. Not having coffee is harder for me than all liquid diet (for now). Excited & scared for the 8th! Glad I found y’all to talk about our surgeries. Good luck on yours!

September 10th here! I'm celebrating my (September) birthday this weekend since I'll be a couple of days post-op on my actual birthday.

Good luck everyone!

@MagentaMom great! We’re surgery siblings now! You’re the ONLY person I’ve seen with our date??? I thought I’d never get a surgery sis ? . I’m going after labor day and my Son’s birthday so that I can enjoy the festivities. Maybe one last ice cream cone? I heard it makes you nauseous after vsg and ice cream is my favorite! Im looking forward to healthier favorites after surgery.

where are you having your surgery done?

I knowwww. I am just so head hungry. I have had all my Protein and now I just wish I could go to bed so I’m not around food but...kids. Sigh. I may sneak a lean chicken breast for dinner tomorrow night and some steamed broccoli.

YES. My surgery is on Wednesday and I feel like I am starving and I am so tired! I have lost 15lbs so far. Today I woke up from a dream about a sub sandwich. I am hungry, yet I feel like I can barely choke down these protein shakes. I make my own with pea protein powder, but now I am so over them.

September 21st. Just got insurance approval today.

SO REAL! I have lost 14 pounds on this diet in the last 7 days, I'd be shocked to see any more significant weight loss but who knows...either way, I am constantly hungry..... blarrrrgh.
