Louise is gonna Lose 26 Posted November 18, 2018 Hi All, just joined this forum and I am excited to connect with you all. I believe that these groups are necessary to keep morale up and help during the rough times. My VSG surgery is December 20th. It has all gone so fast since I made the decision and I can't believe I'll be starting my pre-op diet on December 6th. Looking forward to getting to know you all. 1 kx2ax5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ColeSimone 10 Posted November 18, 2018 Dec 20th here. I will start my liquid diet on Dec 6th. It will be rough considering I work in a restaurant. I’m surrounded by food all day. 1 1 kx2ax5 and Sharon21 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Louise is gonna Lose 26 Posted November 18, 2018 For those of us scheduled in December, are you eating like there is no tomorrow or are you trying to be good before you start your pre-op diet. I go day by day, sometimes binge eating and sometimes fasting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lolo 2020 236 Posted November 18, 2018 I don’t understand why some doctors require it and others don’t . I was going to do surgery through insurance in nj but there was an exclusion , so now doing it self pay In Florida . No doctor didn’t require 2 weeks of liquids before but Florida doctor does Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I go day by day, sometimes binge eating and sometimes fasting. I haven’t been binging, but we do visit favorite restaurants on date nights and I’m making a lot of my favorites for thanksgiving. I’ve tried to be conscious of when I feel full and am trying to stop then rather than “cleaning my plate”. My surgery is the 14th, so December 1st is the day I start my Pre-Op diet. I’m blessed that I do not have to do a liquid diet like most, but rather a low carb, low fat diet. Edited November 19, 2018 by kx2ax5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
