:lol:Hi Larenshine

What does your pre op diet consist of and why does your doctor want to put you on one. I just saw my doctor and he said I didn't need to just the 24 hours fasting .

thanks,

Hi Alicia,

I think it's fairly common in order to shrink the fat around the liver. I have to have 3 Protein Drinks a day, and then one healthy meal. Since my BMI isn't too high, I don't have to do it for quite as long. I'm SO ready for surgery day to get here. How bout you?

Nothing to worry about on the redness. Mine was too for a few days. My doctor (Dr Jay, Dallas,Texas) said to put neosporin on it to get the redness out incase of infection. Might want to check with your doctor. You are starting at where I was on April 24th, 2008. I am now weighing 185 in less than 3 months. Not bad. I had a problem after my 2nd fill and had to get some taken out. Couldn't eat anything. Doing better now. Good luck.
