You have to start usually 2 weeks before surgery. I just stared my today and it's like I can smell everything I can't eat.

I started my pre-op diet today as well.... May 30th here we come!

Yeah someone in another cubicle at work had a burger and fries for lunch as I sat here eating a Protein bar.... was so not cool having to smell that!

My pre-op is pre-packaged foods that my surgeon's office orders in- all low carb/ low cal and high Protein. The taste leaves something to be desired.

My surger is May 28. I am excited and a little nervous. It will all be worth it.

I was a pizza lover and now if I never eat it again I will live. I hAve ate like 5 slices all together since surgery but just looking at the oil dripping its turning me off lmbo I'm nuts!

It's hard watching ppl eat and we are stuck with shakes & Protein Bars. I know the feeling.

It's good that what I'm really craving is chicken breast...I can start chewing Monday! I hope I tolerate white meat. I know some people have a hard time with it.I'm going to start with canned white meat chicken salad made with Greek yogurt and dill. Delicious! How soon were you able to tolerate raw veggies? I know I have awhile yet but I'm just wondering.

Pre-op diets differ by surgeons. my all liquid portion of my pre-op diet was only 3 days prior to surgery. this I did but prior to that I had the last supper syndrome.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
