Jan 10th here. It just got very real. My doctor is allowing a high Protein diet 2 weeks before surgery and the liquid diet only 2 days before. Is this normal? I know everyone is a little different.

thats what I'm starting this Friday

I’m on the 11th & my doc only has me on a one day liquid diet! Good luck to you tomorrow- you’ll be great!

I am doing good on pre Op following it to the T. Almost getting used to it. Surgery is in 5 days. Really stressing out don't want to be a horror story. Trying to stay as positive as I can.

Congrats!! I’m a week into mine…. It’s HAPPENING!!

Scheduled Jan 23rd sleeve to bypass conversion with hiatal hernia repair. On 2 week liquid diet and I am PUMPED. So ready to stop waking up choking on stomach acid and get back to a healthy weight!
@CK77 the pain is not bad from the sleeve itself. I had mine today. The only problem is the gas pain, and I’ve been sleeping all day I haven’t been able to progress on my fluids.
