I start that on the 30th December I think. Aargh! I am going to try a two week trial run starting some time this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not too long to wait! I was wondering, what's going on with my pre-op diet. There's a lot of people on here with liquid diets etc but mine's not like that at all..... maybe it's a UK thing? Also, how long have you booked off work Bboopshell? I've only booked one week's leave but starting to think I should take more.... I only took one week off. But my boss told me if I need two weeks just let her know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TakingABreak 2,733 Posted November 28, 2017 January for me! Getting pretty excited. About 7 weeks out! 1 Bboopchell reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TakingABreak 2,733 Posted November 28, 2017 I am going to try a two week trial run starting some time this week. I’ve been doing this as well. I started replacing Breakfast and lunch with a Protein Shake. So when it comes time for the preop diet, it will be a lot easier. I will say, I’m hungry but it as bad as I thought. 1 Bboopchell reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
