Hello lillyme
Im from wa, 21 years old and have my surgery date which is next week 8th October! I am very nervous and excited!
Im trying to read as much as I can on this site to help me get through it all. Im going through Dr Stephen Watson at murdoch SJOG. He is a lovely man and have heard nothing but good things about him, he is also alot cheaper! If you go through him 10 days pre op you will have to go on Optifast for 3 meals eat as much veggie/salad and have diet drinks abd jelly. I simply cannot drink the shakes as I have had bad experience with them before and the smell and taste I cant bare!!
So the dietitian gave me the option to have at least 1-2 optifast shakes and 1-2 light meals, so I just have heaps of salad and a little bit of chicken! This will be different for each person.
Im trying to think of other things to tell you, right now Im unsure :/ lol. Feel free to ask me questions, ill try my best to answer them
