ready4change2 19 Posted June 20, 2012 Hey i was just reading over the blog! Thanks for the list on when everyone's surgery day is that is wonderful. I initially was scheduled for june 4th then my dr had a emergency and it got moved 5 days before my surgery. I was so sad but what can you do right. Well i ended up having my surgery on june 11th. It went great and i feel good. I have started pureed diet today and was abke to have scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, and chicken pureed. They were amazing. Went and seen my dietitian today and i am down 30 pounds since i started the whole process last november. 10 pounds on supervised diet, 15 pounds on liquid diet, and 5 pounds post-op. I feel great. Good luck to all the june bandsters as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M0Mof3NC 18 Posted June 20, 2012 Hope all the June Bandsters are still doing well...and those waiting, good luck! I'm scheduled for tomorrow so super excited! How long did you all take off work? I didn't want work to know so I've just taken off tomorrow and Friday, going back Monday to my desk job. If I don't feel too well I figure I can take Monday and/or Tuesday and then Wednesdays and Thursdays I work from home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thighhigh 23 Posted June 20, 2012 Congrats and good luck everyone... Day 14 of a 21 day shake diet...I think I might ascend to a higher plane soon. Has anybody else ever heard of a 21 day pre-op diet??? Also, I'm baking an enormo kid's birthday cake today, to be shaped like a purple hippo. Groaaaan. Repeat after me, "Christine, you will NOT lick any spoons or taste any single thing. You already know the flavour since you have made all these thigns a million times." 1 kyrasgrandma reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
