    Pre-Op diet and exercise

    Thanks for all the advice and information! I figure I'll keep with working out as long as I feel up to it. As I told a co-worker today, I also like it because it occupies my time and keeps me from wanting more food.
  2. Hi everyone! I'm new to this board, but since my surgery is approaching on August 29th, I wanted to reach out to others going through the same things. I'm on the pre-op liquid diet of three shakes a day and while it's not fun, I've been sticking to the program and I've dropped about 10 pounds since Sunday. My question is did any of you or are any of you working out in the two weeks prior to surgery? My doctor said that it was fine this week as long as I felt up to it and the first two days I was good...but I'm wondering how others did with this. I just know that after the surgery it will be awhile for anything beyond walking and I want to keep my muscle build-up for as long as possible.
  3. I'm right at the end of the month, but my surgery is scheduled for August 29th. After all of the pre-op certification and then expecting to wait for Horizon to make a decision, the turn around ended up being quite fast. I started the pre-op liquid diet on Monday and had my ENDO yesterday. I'm excited and nervous for the whole thing.
