I could find our thread from the other day. I'm new still learning how to work this app. Lol I've already lost 5 lbs doing pre-op since Monday. It's not that bad I weighed in at 192 this morning. How are you doing? Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Mine is Sept 2nd. I started my pre op yesterday. So far it consists of an Isopure shake for Breakfast with fat free milk, a shake for lunch with Water, dinner is 4 oz grilled chicken breast with a green salad and a little ranch. I eat celery, broccoli and cucumber in between for a snack. The only thing I'm worried about is the ranch. It's one of those Hidden Valley packages with Mayo and watered down and lots of water too.

I have to start my pre op diet next week also. What are you having during yours? Water, broth, Jello, popcycles, soup, anything else i forgot Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App Water, Water, Water!!! I will be having a protien shake (isopure) for Breakfast and lunch for dinner, a salad with a low fat dressing with chicken or fish. My plan says I can have all the raw or cooked veggies I want. If needed I can have a 3rd shake in the evening. I'm sure I will have jello & popsicles too. I hear this is going to be the hardest part, but will be so worth it!

Yes Vida is a super nice facility and the coordinator said most of the nurses are bilingual. The price included 1 guest to stay with me at Vida. Which is perfect since I'm sure I'll be a nervous wreck. If I decide to bring more supporters they would stay at the Marriott. Congratulations on your success!! liquid diet starts Monday for me!!

Thanks! Yes I have tbought about that. The facility is called Vida Wellness Center. I know a little and my husband is fluent. He will hopefully be by my side most of the time. They are even allowing him in the recovery room overnight with me. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
