browneyedgirl89 10 Posted May 27, 2011 my pre op diet consists of Protein Shakes for Breakfast and lunch and 6-8oz Protein and veggies for dinner..not bad but no diet is fun! they said you have to lose 10-20 pounds before surgery or they wont do it, something about they dont want you insides to be as fatty? i dont know...i just know i have to lose 10 pounds, but it should be easy to do that on such a strict diet.

scosheem 3 Posted May 28, 2011 Hi I'm scheduled for June 6th! Tomorrow will be day 6 of the dreaded liquid diet but so far so good. God must have his hand over my mouth so far or I would have already cheated. But I can not believe that even though I have been hungry it has been ok. I cook dinner for my family ( my husband, my 16 year old daughter, my 12 year old neice and my 3 year old son) and even sit at the table with them while they eat and I am ok. So come on June 6 I cant wait. On June 12 my husband and I will be married 24 years I am hoping that by this time next year I will be back to the thin bride he married! 1 NewStart95987 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think anyone who is not in our situation can really appreciate what this means. Good luck to you. Thanks so much and the best to you as well Keep me informed on your progress and keep up the liquids. I had to lose the weight my surgeon wanted me to first but because of this will have no liquid diet. You can do it! Sending Lots of Love your way! Your Band Sista!
