*quietly slips back into the forums* Apologies for my absence. Some stuff came up (not WLS related) that sent me into a bit of a funk and I didn't feel very much like chatting to anyone. I've tried to stay focused on my pre-op diet, with limited success.

But Thursday begins phase two of the diet... 5-6 glucerna shakes, and 200 calories of veg per day. Hopefully it will knock out the last three pounds I need to lose before surgery.

I hope everyone is doing well and not feeling too overwhelmed as your dates draw near.

I hope you are better. And i understand you wanting to take sometime fore yourself! Im sure you will loose those pounds in no time. Do some walking thats whats helping me

I slipped up on my preop diet but i bounced back. i skipped a day of my Vitamins and ate whataburger which is my weekness. I told my dietician and she was like its ok just to make sure i get my remaining fluids in .

My mother doesnt support me. Just this weekend she sent me a long message about how i should do it and how i wont be able to have kids and how im going to have some many complications. For my mother to be a educator for over 45 years she still wont allow me to educate her on the surgery.

I told her i do not want her to come to the hospital i told her to just pray from me from home. She has been hurting my feeling this past month! She is the ONLY person i regret telling

Yay for surgery twins!! Thanks for the input from your surgeon’s office! Mine said I could have 4oz lean meat and veggies at one meal but I’m super paranoid it’ll put a huge dent in the weight loss if I do 😬 Good luck with the surgery!! I know we’ll both do great with it!!

You should be fine just make sure your getting you fluids in that what really helps with shrinking the liver. I know we will Good Luck and congrats we only have 10 days left

Hey Surgery twin!

Im on pre op now and i just got off the phone with my nurse and she stated i can have unlimited seafood veggies and fruit but i have to make sure i hit my liquid goal. But honestly everybody bariatric office is different.

If i dont eat seafood she said i could have 4oz of lean meat everyday.

yes, on my forms any liquids is considered as Water intake

So im on my pre op diet and i have not cheat 1 bit and im not hangry yet. lol

The nurse called and we talked about my Protein i need to be eating! she said i can have a subway veggie sandwich with but on eat 1 side of the read. She told me i have a option daily i could eat any type of seafood throughout the day except lobster because it rubbery and harder to digest or a 4 oz lean meat like a steak and patty .

This is relief because i feel a food headache coming on BIG TIME.!

I will be doing just that . Since im taking 2 weeks off after surgery i guess im taking the boat out and do some fishing with my family. and lay out in the sun . I thought i get to much sun since i live in Florida

He all,

I got my results back from my blood work and the nurse email me saying she sent a prescription over for replesta 50000 wafer and i have to take them for 13 months 1 a week which isn't bad. What other ways can i increase my Vitamin D

* Im going to the beach this weekend to get some sun*
