Weight Loss Before Surgery
oceancity4me replied to ShannaM's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Over 17 pounds in one week is fantastic!! Good for you. How long do you have to do your pre-op diet for? I have to do mine for 2 wks. My surgery date is Dec 3rd. I am hoping to lose another 8-10 pounds by then. -
Weight Loss Before Surgery
oceancity4me replied to ShannaM's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I agree with Northern Mist. Pre-op diet will do it. I have lost 5 lbs in 4 days. I am allowed to have 2 lean cuisine meals, 2 protein shakes, 1 cup vegs and 1/2 cup of fruit per day and lots of water....you can do it! Good luck -

Well it sounds like a week should be fine then. I am getting a little nervous as I get closer to my surgery date(DEC 3rd) but very excited! Pre-op diet going well. I am down 5 lbs in 4 days -

I would be happy to be your buddy. I am 37 years old and will be having surgery on Dec 3rd. I started my pre-op diet yesterday. 1000 calories per day. It's tough. But I can do it. I have 95 lbs to lose. -
Time between your first visit to surgery date?

My first appt was in Sept and my surgery date is Dec 3rd. It depends how fast your insurance authorization comes back. Mine came back in 5 days. Federal BCBS is great! Good luck! -

Unbelievable! You look fantastic. I am getting banded on Dec 3rd. Can't wait. You give me so much hope. I have 95 lbs to lose. Thanks for sharing your wonderful journey! -
Sounds like everyone's pre-op diet is a little different. I am allowed 2 protein shakes,2 lean cuisine meals(less than 200 cal) each, 1 cup of veg and 1/2 cup of fruit per day. Just started it yesterday. My surgery is scheduled for Dec 3rd. I am sooooo excited.
