I'm just joining and due for sleeve surgery 28/10/13. First weigh in 122kgs I am having trouble with the pre op diet started 2 weeks ago I was doing well with shakes and salad or veggies and lost 5 kg, but on sat night I had a blow out I drank 1/2 can of coke and ate chocolate then after going out with my son I had a mcdonalds burger. I have been exited about surgery and now I am just scared. I have 13 days to go and worried I can't maintain the pre op diet the shakes are now making me feel sick, I have tried not to think too much but it is all I can think about.

Completely normal to feel scared, I did too but it's part of the process I think. I don't have to go on a pre-op diet until the day before and then it's liquid only. I'm scheduled for 10/23, completed all of my PATs today and now really looking forward to it. Getting through those really helped ease my nerves. Talk to your doc about your concerns, I guarantee it's nothing he/she hasn't heard before and it will help ease your mind too. Good luck

Thanks BerryChic. I'm just learning how to use this site. I've read so much with what the dr has given me I think I have overload. I had an appointment booked for Thursday with the dietitian and was looking forward to it but the office rang and said due to problems they have to make it a phone appointment. Oh well still looking forward to the surgery. Good luck with yours, a step into a new life.????
