carlyanncan 15 Posted October 27, 2016 I just had my appointment for my pre-op diet today. I felt like such an idiot because I was fighting back tears. I know this will be such a short amount of time in the big scheme of things, but I will be on liquids for 3 weeks. The shakes are $75 a week! I am going to go into bankruptcy paying for this surgery and the supplements. I'm hoping after the first couple days I feel more confident, but right now I am really having a hard time being kind to myself.

mbarrow01 11 Posted October 28, 2016 Had my preop visit with my surgeon today. I've lost 10lbs since my last visit so I don't have to lose any more weight prior to surgery. But I'm sure I will because I still have to do the preop diet. Good luck to all of you having to do all liquid diets, I know that must be tough. I'm less nervous and more excited now that it's getting closer to the 7th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
