Hi everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself. I've been lurking on these forums for a couple of months, this is my first post. My surgery is scheduled for August 22. I started the pre-op diet today - so far, so good! I am super excited about getting the surgery done and I'm looking forward to seeing where this journey takes me. Best of luck to all!

Hi there

Im on day 2 pre op diet! My surgery is on the 29th august!

I have an awful headache today

How's it going with your pre-op diet? Mine hasn't been too terrible except the shakes taste awful. The rest of the food is okay.

Are you ladies in the UK?

My diet is 1.2litres of milk and 2 low fat yoghurts per day pkus lots of water!

I have lost 14lbs in my first week, my operation is next Tuesday!

Very excited!

I'm also getting mine on August 22nd. They said they only needed me on a 3 day pre-op diet but, after reading so much on the benefits of going longer, I decided to start mine yesterday. So, of course, I've lost nothing so far! HA!

Anyway, I'm way over amped for this but, trying to play it cool.

But, I can't! I'm so excited! I have made the changes to diet and exercise, now I just need my body to follow suit!

I ahave been loosing a minimum of 1lb a day but didnt lose anythi g today but I have been having little bits to eat beacuse I honestly feel like eating my own arm!

I am in the Uk so Im guessing our pre op diets are gonna ve slightly different?

My doctor gave me the food to eat on the pre-op diet. It's things like shakes and Soups that you mix with Water. It hasn't been too bad! I've cheated a little bit a couple of times but still down 8 lbs. My goal is to be down 12 by my surgery date.

[Emma1981 19]

Surgery for me tomorrow! Have lost 18lb! So a good start for the long road ahead!
