Newtree, I only had a week of preop diet. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I did lose some weight during that time, but not a ton. You can do this. I could have all the pickles/broccoli & cauliflower I wanted. So after my meals of what I had to eat, I'd have a bowl of those things

Thanks Graciesmom04! I have 16 days left! Friday was rough... it really was but Saturday was a new day and I feel more in control now! How are you doing?

Glad it's getting better! I finally passed the stall today, lasted a week, and lost 2.8 lbs since Friday. Still on pureed foods & tonight I'm trying cooked carrots. Can't wait!

[newtree 8]

Cooked carrots I bet are going to taste amazing! Warm and soft! I hope they were wonderful!

This is my first post. Surgery scheduled for March 2. Need a buddy. I just had my last visit with surgeon before surgery. I'm down 30# from where I started end of November. Have lost 20 of those in past 10 days. I'm a little nervous, would be lying if I said I wasn't, but am psych ready for surgery.

periwinkle, you will do great! Sounds like you're already off to a good start! I was same way. I'm 4 weeks post op today. I was really scared...and nervous, but yet excited at the same time. This is a great place to look for answers and has helped me tremendously!
