kmorri 1,689 Posted April 29, 2016 @@kmorri This is awesome! Congrats!! You have a great pre op plan. I had 1 lean protein/veggie meal a day and let me tell you, I couldn't wait to cook my dinner and eat! Good luck! Are you have a food Funeral this weekend?? I went to some of my favorite places to eat before I started mine. I finally got my official date and it's 5/16/16!!! I'll be starting my pre-op diet on Monday May 2nd.....but thankfully I get to have food on my pre-op diet. I have one Protein shake and two small low carb meals per day.....and then clear liquids 24 hours prior to surgery. Trying to not consider it as a "food funeral"......but I will probably have dinner out somewhere with my hubby on Sunday just because I know it'll be a while....but I'm not going to have anything crazy.....I've actually been looking forward to being able to start doing something to take off some of this weight.....I've been stuck during the pre-op phase with not being able to lose anything in order to ensure I qualified....So now I'm ready for this new start!!

kmorri 1,689 Posted April 29, 2016 Me too!!! 5/16 here as well! I am scheduled on 16 May 2016 for gastric sleeve surgery with Dr. Nilesh A. Patel in San Antonio, Tx. Anybody know him or have anything to share about him? I am a low BMI of 35 and my insurance just approved the surgery after trying for almost a year. I am excited, but scared at the same time. That's only 2 weeks away from now! I just got my date today, and we have the same date! 5/16/16. Yay! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
