I'm on day 5 of pre-op diet. I'm doing very well on it but I really just want to eat food just to eat. My one meal a day is like the best thing ever! I will be on the diet longer than 4 weeks due to the way my surgery falls and the Dietitian is only in the office 2 times a week.....ugh! I've got to get out of my head with food! I'll be glad for surgery, can't wait! I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving! I'll be over here drinking my optifast! Lol!

Well, all that is left now is my cardiologist approval, which I will get on March 7th. Than I will start my 4 week opti fast diet, so probably looking at 1st or 2nd week in April for surgery. Dr .Eichhorn will do the surgery on a thrusday. Humana just sent me a letter today saying my surgery was approved. Still have to have a egd and colonoscopy on the 23rd of march, but that will be done during my opti fast diet. Ready to get this done and moving on.
