I have no formal pre-op plan. I just can't gain wait before surgery.

:(

I actually put myself on my own plan starting yesterday (because surgery is two weeks away)... Been doing Protein shakes for Breakfast and lunch and having a protest rich dinner. Am hoping this will make the transition easier.

I am ready to get this surgery done with already! :)

Best wishes, for the first day of your new life, tomorrow! My banding date is 19 Aug. I'm excited & a bit nervous. Sure a lot of people have felt that way. was supposed to begin my 2-wk pre=op diet tomorrow, but my daughter & family were here on vacation and I lost track of time on ordering my Protein powder; ordered this past Fri. a.m. Hopefully, it'll be delivered no later than this Tuesday. :huh:

I just had my band surgery on Tuesday. My doctor just required a 1500 calorie diet before surgery. I'm on the liquid diet now...but I'm ready to move it forward to my soft food diet bc I have alot more options. Good luck to all!

Going well. Admittedly, I was much more sore and tired than I anticipated. Today is the first day of 'phase 2' of my post-op diet I will say, though, that I am amazed how much better I felt yesterday and today compared to Monday & Tuesday.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
