syjaeger84@gmail.com 9 Posted January 31, 2016 My surgery is scheduled for Feb. 15. I begin my 2 week liquid diet on Monday. I am really pumped about the surgery, but at the same time I am nervous. I just found out yesterday that the surgeon who was scheduled to do the surgery is no longer with the group effective two days ago. I happened to go into the office yesterday and got the opportunity to meet my new surgeon and I really like him. He is able to perform the surgery on the same day, so I was pleased. Basically, the only change is my pro op appointments. I would really like to keep in touch and see how you are doing. I wish you all the best!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shiloh2004 20 Posted February 1, 2016 Started my 2 week pre op liquid diet today. I am using chocolate and strawberry Protein Shakes (Bariatric Advantage). I had to come up with a schedule to get in all my nutrition, supplements, Water, and exercise. Plus I have to account for appointments. I am not hungry at all. Those shakes fill me up! I have already walked once today. I hope to maybe ATTEMPT to hit tennis balls for a little bit with my husband later. Please wish me luck. If anybody wants to be a buddy during this adventure, please let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
