one month surgervrsery

[laylasmojo 10]

I am one month out today it really amazes me how fast time flys by, I am only 4 pounds away from my half way goal which I am sure I will make by next week. I truly contribute being this far to my nut's pre op diet on which I lost 30 pounds. I really do recomend putting your self on a pre op diet even if your surgen and Nut do not require one, it really does help with getting your self ready for the change in diet post op and it puts you that much closer to goal for after surgey. Good luck to all who are considering VSG and to all who have all redady joined the loosers bench! You have all been such wonderfull inspiration to me

Tomorrow I am two weeks out. My surgeon requires a two day pre op diet of liquids only but I also had to loose ten % of excess weight before they would make a date. I have lost that and trying to lose a little more. Curious what was your two week diet? I am kind of doing a low carb/sugar, low fat, high Protein diet. Some days I have just done protien shakes for morning or lunch and just a regular dinner.

Congrats on your success! Your doing Great!

I was on a 1200 calorie high protien low carb diet from the time I went to the NUT and that was in June then 10 days beofre my date I was on 4 protien shakes and a lettuce salad with lettuce per day. then the day before surgery was all Clear Liquids. Hope this helps.

Congrats on your success! Woo hoo! My one month is tomorrow (I was sleeved the day after you) and you are totally right about doing the pre-op stuff. My dr. didn't require it, so all my weight loss is basically post-op weight...sort of wishing 45 lbs were gone right now. lol. Oh well, I only did clears for about a day before surgery.

But you are rocking the sleeve...that that is what matters most! Hard to believe that surgery was a month ago. Doesn't it feel like it was a long time ago (it does to me anyway!)
