KristieRerouted 24 Posted November 11, 2013 Just wanted to say I haven't forgot about you all. I have company over this weekend until tomorrow and it makes it hard to do the calendar stuff. Good luck to those having surgery today: janifer's hubby, rnjsnana & mychoice2lose. 1 Janifer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LindsJ83 56 Posted November 13, 2013 Janifer - I wanted to answer your message personally however, this darn new system says I'm not allowed to. How frustrating! Anyway - I am SO glad to hear you and your husband are doing well! I'm halfway through my pre-op diet. I'm 9 days away from surgery. I cannot believe it! How did you get to go home so fast? I thought my hospital was great with a 2 day stay!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sunshyn21 20 Posted November 14, 2013 And my day is 11/26. Today is my 3rd day on preop diet and OMG!! It's a beast! I'm hungry and I just feel kinda out of it...had to take a day off from work to try and get the hang of this. I keep telling myself that this is a speed bump and once I get used to this, it'll be surgery day before I know it!! ???? 1 princessjazz_lifechanging reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindsJ83 56 Posted November 14, 2013 The first 3 days of the diet are really hard. But, by day 4 it gets better. I'm halfway through and now I barely feel hungry and I'm just around 800-1100 cals per day. Anybody who says fat people don't have willpower is wrong! Lol you got this!!! 1 sunshyn21 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindsJ83 56 Posted November 14, 2013 Oh and what I have found works for me is Twinings Purely Peppermint Naturally Decaf. I do a cup every afternoon and evening. It's really yummy! And peppermint is a natural appetite suppressant! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B.J. 16 Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) November 26th! Haven't been this excited in years! Edited November 15, 2013 by B.J. 2 princessjazz_lifechanging and LindsJ83 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
princessjazz_lifechanging 5 Posted November 15, 2013 Wow we're all so close in our dates! I haven't started a pre op diet/liquid diet yet... Haven't been told to do so. My pre surgery testing and nutrition class is on Monday, exactly a wk b4 my surgery. I think I start then... I wonder why some ppl have 2wk pre op diets, some have 1 wk diets & some don't diet at all. 1 B.J. reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
