10 day diet starts today - May 5 surgery date!
DaddyMarie replied to NancyInOkc's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am on day 2 of my preop diet and I feel fine. It's weird. I mean it's more head hunger. I just drink a ton of water and have 3 shakes a day (supposed to have 4 but it seems like so much!) veggies and broth/soups and even cream of wheat with Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk! It's totally easier than I thought! -
My surgery is May 7th as well! In Sacramento Ca.

I had my Preop visit with my surgeon today and then the nutritionist. My surgeon is ready to rock and so am I! I asked him how many people that he has done have died and he said ZERO. I asked him how many Leaks he said NONE! He's the best of the best and I feel very comfortable he is doing my surgery! I have a 2 week preop diet which consists of liquids, protien shakes (cornerstone is what he gave me) low fat Soups, sugar free popcycles, pudding and Jello. I can also have endless veggies! Wee!!! I'm so happy I just may go to McDonalds for dinner since I start my diet tomorrow! I'm so ready for this journey and nothin is gonna stop me from livin the life I was intended to live!

Preop Diet Stars NOW!
DaddyMarie replied to DaddyMarie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm jealous! I'm on strictly liquid. Shakes, broth, sf Jello, low carb yogurt and protein pudding. Good luck!!! I'm sure you will do great! Premier, Chike and unjury are good. The Syntrax nectars are nastyyyyy! Laura I have to buy the protein from my surgeons office at least for preop and 2 weka after. They like to make money off it. It's either Cornerstone or Bariatric Advantage and since they were out of BA I got Cornerstone and it tastes like shit!!! I was thinking after 3 shakes today, "how the hell am I gonna choke these bastards down for the next month? Then I put a banana in my blender and added a packet of Splenda and that did the trick!! -

I am 41 BMI and I'm on a 2 week diet that consists of 4 Protein shakes a day, as well as Healthy choice Soups, broth, popcycles, sugar free Jello and pudding, veggies plain with nothing on them. It's all ha to do with your doctor.

So far I feel ok. The smell of my daughters fish sticks were a little hard.... I have to drink protien shakes with 20-30 grams of Protein per drink. Less than 200 cal per drink, less than 5 grams of fat and sugar per drink. I get 4 shakes a day with almond milk. I can have low fat/low sodium soups like healthy choice, one serving 5x a day. Cream of wheat, applesauce/ pudding low fat sugar free. Veggies are free Here's a sample menu -

Where are you coming from and where in California are you going?

San on light and fit is not Greek yogurt... I would watch the sugar content cause typically when something is low fat it's high in augar

You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers tonight! I am so sorry, but I have faith that she will pull through this and be back to herself before you know it. Stay positive!!

So not a big deal.... IV fluids, night night, wake up, go home. No pain no nothin. They just look for hernia, inflammation, cysts etc... It's fun!

its been a loong process
DaddyMarie replied to karlam29's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
If it's what you want you should keep moving forward. Tenacity gets you places. You have come this far and if everything in life was easy we'd all be thin and healthy. Some of the hardest things to obtain are the most rewarding. Keep going, never give up on your dreams. -
Think about smoking every day...

Doubting...please help
DaddyMarie replied to hopeful2loose2014's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ok I have been cool and calm this whole process but starting last week I'm a MESS! Like a deep depression mess. I don't wanna do anything or see anyone and I cry all the time. Mind you I have much going on at work and in my personal life and I have to try and stay positive about surgery? I am a mess.... A bawl bag, a cry baby and I feel like a big weenie! I know I need to do this and it's the only way to get these disgusting 100 lbs off of me!!! I will regret it if I don't. If I were to back out I'd be a quitter and my momma didn't raise no quitter!!! The complications from being a fat chick are way more than the complications from this surgery. Keep your head up and your eye on the prize!!!! -
So who else is scheduled for surgery on Lucky 7?
