Summer 2018 Surgery Buddies Check In Here!

Wishing you a speedy recovery! -
I'm in Agawam, MA and getting my sleeve next Tuesday.

I'm on day 9 of my pre op diet, and I'm allowed food as well, very limited I'll say, but it's working out for me. 3 shakes a day, 1 serving of fruit, veggie and starch a day, until day before and clear liquids. I guess it all depends on your doctor on what kind of diet, if any, you'll be on.

That's the way I am, I figure I started this in December and I'm just a idle over a week to go, I can do this!! Looking at the big picture when I get to the other side. Glad you're able to do this struck by the diet, prepping us for after surgery. -

Omg, this is so my husband. He's so nice to not eat in front of me, but he's talking about food all the time, unknowingly I suspect. I just say, yes dear, sound great, wish I could sympathize but nope, let me just drink my meal , or even offer him a sip. -

I'm having the same problem. Yesterday only got 2 of 3 shakes I'm suppose to get down. Just a few more days, is what I keep telling myself. -

Omg, I would be in true he'll at your work. We have very generous employers. They're always buying pizza, donuts, Panera bread/ muffins, having different offs (last one was chili) and every Thursday and Friday each department is ordering out. I can say no to most stuff but it's the scents that get me and my tummy growling. I'm on my 2 week pre op diet and haven't strayed, so happy with my willpower, since there's nothing I can do. -

Had my last visit with nutritionist. Start Pre Op diet Monday. 3 shakes a day, 1 serving of vegetable, fruit and starch a day (on their list). Also all the pre op doctors appointments. Have a lot planned the next couple weeks, so hope that helps with this diet.
