Keleka 0 Posted August 25, 2008 Today I went to my nutrition meeting! They covered what to eat, when to eat, how to eat etc... They also covered on what to expect with the surgery! I was surprised to find out they really don't have a pre-op diet so to speak, but the Dr. would like you to lose about 10 pounds. I want to make sure everything is ok so I opted to do a cross between powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury and Optifast for Breakfast and lunch and then a healthy choice for dinner! I also went to the hospital today and they did a UA, chest x-ray, ekg, bloodwork, weighed and measured me. They also gave me a bottle of magnesium citrate (for clean out) on Sunday before surgery:scared2:. They also gave me some soap to wash with the night before and then the morning after. The good news I am the first one out in the morning. My surgery is scheduled for 7:30am. I also found out they give me a tummy Teddy Bear for coughing~:smile2: It's really nice to see so many of us able to be sharing in the wonderful journey ahead! Good luck to all!
