[npm518 146]

So i met with my surgeon thursday and set my date a little less than 2 weeks away. Problem is he wants me to only have Protein shakes... 3 a day and thats it and lose 15lbs. I work 13 hour shifts at night and havent been hungry but very weak with a raging headache... any advice? I broke down tonight and had a small salad with some turkey on it... i needed something to get me through the next 9 hours of work!

Hopefully your headache is gone by now and sorry you are not feeling well. I have my surgery on Sept 10th and this is my 4th day on the pre-op diet. It hasn't been bad and yesterday was the first day I actually started to think I was hungry... You can do this and you are so worth this right now... Can't wait to hear your success story...

Best of luck on your surgery day and sending positive energy your way

Ha! We just might be sleeve buddies! I too am 3 shakes a day with a weightloss goal of 5-10kg (times 2.2for lb) but if I don't reach it I have to weight till 9th October! So I am struggling too. I am at the end of my fourth day and have already succumbed to chicken and veg tonight. But staying focused on the prize!! I am allowed unlimited non starchy veg so plan on making some Soups to last me through. Good luck!! You CAN do this!!
