Surgery Date December 21st.............



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled for surgery December 21st. I a have been on the pre-op diet for 7 days but I screwed up a wee bit yesterday. I didn't go nuts but I did get a taste but no sugar. I am scared but going to do it anyway. I just cannot stay like this any more. I want to look not the fattest person in the room.

I am on the pre diet for just and have lost 7 lbs. already. I am struggling, tho, to get the exercise in. I must do better. I found it really confusing to remember when to take my regular meds, when to take the Vitamins, etc . I made out timetable for each day in 2 hour incremebts and entered what I should be having in foods, liquids, meds, Vitamins, and it is helping me a lot stay on track.

Tomorrow is the day but I am nervous. I lost 9 lbs on the pre op diet and I did OK holding to what I was allowed to eat pretty much, but lousy at the liquids and at exercise.

I don't want to fail at this but I realize I must have more self discipline. Anyone else out there feeling the same as me?

Yes. Had a really hard time sticking to the liquid diet. For the most part I did. But self discipline is the key. I remind myself that I can control what I put in my mouth. When I do that I can walk away most times and not look back. Hope that helps.

Tomorrow (the 22nd) is my big day too! I'm super excited, but apparently more nervous than I'll admit to...I've been dropping everything I pick up today!

Looking forward to a new beginning and a healthier year next year. Let's all keep each other on track and Celebrate our successes together!

Good luck to all of us!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
