January/February 2018 Sleevers

[RW29 5]

I am new to the group. My surgery is scheduled for January 24th. My pre-op diet is no more than 40 carbs per day which includes quite a few meats, cheeses and vegetables. I have tried to count the carbs throughout the day but have failed on occasion to account for some things. I have been doing low carb for longer than the two weeks but still... my failures and overages make me worry.

Just make these last days count and I’m sure you’ll be fine. My pre-op diet is only 10 days but it’s a liquid only diet. Protein Shakes, broth, etc.

My sleeve will be late March, would have been at the beginning of March but we will be on a 2 week vacation, then have to do my 2 week liquid diet. Im super excited, super nervous. These months are going so fast, I started this process the end of November.

Yes!! Let’s help each other thru this ! I would def like to keep in touch as we go thru the diff phases. I went to see my surgeon today and we went over my pre-op bloodwork etc ... happy to say everything is fine [emoji4] I go Friday for an educational class and then I’m ready for surgery day I am sticking to a low carb/high Protein diet for the next couple of weeks ( I’m going to have one “last supper”) and then I need to do a liquid diet 3 days prior to the surgery (which is the Super Bowl [emoji20]) But that’s ok ! I’m excited to get started ! Do you need to do any special diet prior to the surgery ? What Protein Shakes will you be using ?

It’s getting real isn’t it! I bought some Premier Protein (at Sam’s 25% off) on Friday to give them a try. Not bad. I don’t have to do any special diet however i am watching what I eat but allowing myself treats when I come across something I won’t be able to have later.

Hmm Washington's birthday bet you won't feel like chopping cherry trees down for a few days, but still a good day to start a new way of life.

Life ain't about holding all the good cards; it's about playing the bad hand well.
