Real Me VSG

Hi I'm from Sydney and my surgery is in 7 days (Thursday) I've been nervous/excited for about 2 weeks now... been on the pre op diet that long too... wish it was tomorrow I just want it all over and done. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi Kitty, you are doing great hang in there! I'm day 10 of the pre op shakes. First 4 days were the worst for me. I get through by avoiding food all together if people bring food near me I find a reason to leave the room. I'm on the Optifast and I have a shake for breakfast & lunch, dinner is a shake or optifast chocolate bar. I get by with diet cordial, sugar free lollies, sugar free jelly but only use them when I'm really struggling. My dietician said the best thing for me to stay on track... I ask what if you don't lose fat in the liver? She said if it really is too much liver fat the surgeon has chosen not to operate... that line replays in my head every time I even think about food! My surgery just got moved forward a day so I'm in on Thursday 10th Nov and counting down the days!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
