BariatricGirl 4Life 39 Posted October 21, 2016 Yeah...no one told me anything yet, absolutely nothing... anything I know it's from the Internet... Follow me on here,FB, & Youtube BariatricGirl 4Life Oh my! My dr has told us everything from the first visit. We got a book that goes into detail ( which I like - give me all the information -i hate not knowing whats what! ) Sent from my SM-S765C using the BariatricPal App Yeah it irks me actually that I'm in the dark over what to expect, how to diet (pre-op & post-op), I haven't met my surgeon... I haven't had any classes ...I haven't even received a book nothing absolutely nothing!!! my first appointment is next Thursday for paperwork and weigh in... I don't even have my classes until right before my surgery!!!? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BariatricGirl 4Life 39 Posted October 21, 2016 How is everyone's pre-op diet going? My op is 3rd Nov - eek! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I'll be honest... I dieted for a few months (6mo required)... but then when I was waiting for my approval... I kinda ate like I wanted to for three months...and then I just started dieting again last Sunday...and I plan to diet until I have my surgery and after!! right now I'm doing two Protein shakes a day (morning & night) and one small meal in the afternoon...(either salad or like a lean cuisine or something)...

Ellapearl 26 Posted October 21, 2016 Lulu22 I am scheduled for Nov 1st and I am actually surprised I have made it this far on the liquid diet. This is the fourth day and I've have some low blood sugar issues but otherwise feeling like I'm going to make it. How are you doing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BariatricGirl 4Life 39 Posted October 21, 2016 Yeah the first couple days were really hard...but after that it got easier... knowing that there's a light at the end of the tunnel definitely gives you motivation!!! I hope you're doing OK with your low blood sugar issues??? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ellapearl 26 Posted October 23, 2016 Ok I've made it one week on my 2 week liquid diet. Have my pre-op visit with Dr Allison tomorrow. Time is moving so fast, or so it seems.

newjerseygirl60 45 Posted October 29, 2016 I would too like to have surgery buddies, mine is November 14th will start my liquid diet on Halloween how scary is that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ellapearl 26 Posted October 29, 2016 I'm in November buddies. My surgery is November 1st just two more days. I have been on a two week liquid diet. Not as bad as I expected. My husband has been tremendously supportive. He doesn't eat around me. The thing for me is to keep busy. I'm a "boredom" eater. The great news?....I am already cutting BP medication dosages in half!.....insulin had to be reduced by 30% off a diuretic all together. This is going to be sooo worth it. Not to mention how great we will feel and look!! My surgery will be in Viera Florida. Any other Florida people? My prayer is that we all succeed in our goal to be healthier. God Bless.
