Vetniemeer 36 Posted July 20, 2013 I'm scheduled for Aug 6th in TJ with Dr. Lopez at Mi Doctor. Staying at the Marriott. Hope to meet some of you there! What are you guys doing for your pre-diets? I'm on my 3rd day of suffering with 3 Protein shakes + 1 small dinner of lean Protein and salad. Horrible head aches. shakes make me want to vomit. Starting to feel some lack of energy. Hi sugarpop - we'll see you at the Marriott. I'm being sleeved on the 7th by Dr A Ortiz - we will arrive at the Marriott on the 6th but probably miss you...but we will look out for you on the other side. The pre-op diet is v hard and I hear you re the headaches. My nut said that's could snack n veggies (limited) when I get really hungry so that has helped the monotony...all in a good cause, right?! :-) Good luck with the surgery and let us know how you get on.

scarbedazzles 74 Posted July 20, 2013 I'm an August sleever too!!!! Feeling a little left out though...I'm going to Dr. Rodriguez at INT Hospital on 8/21....flying home on the 23rd. Starting my pre-op diet on Monday just to try and shrink my liver even more. I was only asked to do a 10 day pre-op. Why don't I see Dr. Rod on here more? 1 Vetniemeer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
supbanana 153 Posted July 20, 2013 Looks like I'm an August sleever as well, I was approved for surgery with Dr. Illan today. I think I'll be booked for August 9th, so I'll be nice and sleeved up in time for my birthday on the 19th! I hope you all have great experiences. 1 Vetniemeer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
