July 14 (or close )Sleeve Date Friends

[tryinagain2day 38]

I am getting my surgery in Portland, OR. I am also relieved that I don't have an extended pre op liquid diet. I have lost 21 pounds by concentrating on Protein and adding resistance training.

Where at? I am also having surgery in Portland buy July 1.

I finally got my paperwork and start the pre surgery diet on the 30th. Not much time left to eat everything I ever wanted to when I couldn't because of my band. lol. Seriously only stick to the diet cause I want my surgery so I am stocking up on the premier Protein and some some other shakes to drink, 3 a day and then I get one little meal thing each day too so that will help a bit..but I love to eat so this will not be fun. Only good thing is I will stop going up and start going down in weight. Love costco for the Protein powder and premier Protein Shakes.

My date moved up! July 13th ☺️

July 7th here. I am going out for one last steak dinner tomorrow.

The pre and post op liquid diets suck but the reality is our love of eating ( or addictive eating) is what got us here. I'm terrified because this tool will only work if I work with it. I am also terrified because food was the only addiction I had left after recovering from my others.

I believe we will all be successful. I wish us all the best and speedy recoveries.

Mine is with Dr. Halpin who's office is right next door to Dr. Patterson. I had lapband done by Dr. Patterson back in 2012. You doing surgery at Legacy?

July 13 surgery date! I start my pre-op diet on June 29; 2 Protein Shakes + 1 healthy meal per day (4-6 oz lean meat, 1 cup green veggies, 1 cup fruit).

[laceygorrell 79]

So I just got my surgery date and it's in exactly 2 weeks on July 7th!!!

[emtscott54 108]

I'm the 7th too. Just started the liquid diet today.

[laceygorrell 79]

I only have a 3 day liquid diet

[AvalonNeeCee 127]

Wow diets really very. Mine is 3 Protein Shakes and one healthy meal

[emtscott54 108]

Mine is 4 New Direction shakes. I can have low cal low sodium broth too but nothing else with calories. This will be tough, but I can handle it.

I'm not loving the texture of the shakes but hey, loving food is what got me here. These shakes are enough fuel to get me through the day.

I wish everyone the best with their surgeries!

Mine is Optifast for two weeks prior to surgery date.. 3 shakes and two meal bars or just 5 shakes.. Ugh not looking forward to that.. But definitely willing to do whatever it takes!

[laceygorrell 79]

I ordered Unjury last week but I had a sample pack. I mixed it with 8 ounces of milk and put a little bit of ice in it and mixed it in my ninja and it actually tasted pretty good. I hope after surgery I can blend it with some ice.
