DebbieG 262 Posted April 12, 2013 I start my pre op diet on Monday it's for 2 weeks ugh I think I'm going to go bat sh*t crazy those 2 weeks lol Lol. Me as well. My pre op diet consists of a Protein Shake for Breakfast & lunch and a lean cuisine for dinner and at least 64 ounces of Water. That should shrink the liver for easy access for laparoscopic gastric bypass. I'm going to hopefully not go crazy!! Surgery date: May 14, 2013 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robbiesgramma 4 Posted April 12, 2013 I am new to this group but my surgery is April 26th. I live in Canada so am fortunate that our health insurance pays for the surgery. Had my pre-op yesterday so nothing else until day of surgery. I am beginning my second week of Optifast and it isn't as bad as I thought it would be. I am anxious, nervous everything rolled into one. WIshing this will give me a reversal of my diabetes . Fingers crossed. 2 Wendilou and MissTiff reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
