Schmincke 118 Posted January 6, 2014 My surgery is one week from tomorrow - the 14th. Pre-op diet is okay, but my surgeon's recommendation is not as strict as many others. High Protein, low carbo. I'm making chicken Soup (no noodles) for dinner but craving fruit. Cleaned the bad stuff out of the kitchen today ... and DID NOT EAT IT! MyFitnessPal and my new Fitbit are ultra-helpful but today it's too cold here in Chicago to go walking for very long. Tomorrow is pre-op test day, and my last pre-op nutrition class. I'm a bit nervous, but more excited than anything. This forum really helps. 1 Dani.o.dani reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LulaKat 0 Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) My surgery date is Janaury 16th. Last appt. is today and I think I start pre-op diet tomorrow. A little worried about the diet, hoping I don't feel yucky since I have to work. Good luck all! Edited January 8, 2014 by LulaKat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lauri407 29 Posted January 9, 2014 I guess I forgot to add myself to this thread. My surgery is on January 15th. A week through the pre-op and no longer have headaches, knock on wood. Having many personal issues at home recently which isn't good, but I'm trying to focus on the positive stuff going on in my life like this surgery. One more week and I'll be on the other side. 1 Schmincke reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
