I'm having my surgery January 9th. I have started my 2 week plan already.

How's the two week preop going? I start my pre op diet the date of your surgery. You doing okay with it?

Good so far, hungry most of the time cheated a bit on the first few days but seem to be a bit better last couple of days but finding it hard x

My preop was a 2 week liver diet with 4 shakes a day and three options out of six items- hard boiled egg, fat free cottage cheese, fat free ricotta, protein pudding .. the first day I had a salad lol.. but it gets easier make sure you enjoy your protein shake.. I found a brand I really liked. I lost 16 lbs in 2 weeks.
My surgery Date is January 17th only 2 weeks away. I was only told to do the pre op diet the week prior however i wanted to get my body used to it so I started last night but still allowed myself one small salad a day. First day was rough hopefully it gets better day by day

Worry is natural as we are bombarded by the "scaries" of our fears and risks. However you and we know this is better than what we've been going through with our weight all these years...you've got this, keep us in the loop we are in this together ❤️

Just got booked for RNY Jan 27th!! This just got real

Hahah. I have 3 weeks of pre op (help) now as my surgeon just switched. Wish me luck!
