I first looked at the lap band and was told one to two weeks before returning to work. I ended up going down the VSG path and I am planning on two weeks off before going to work.

My two week pre-op diet is made up of 100 oz of water a day 5 protein shakes 3 dairy servings and 1 c. raw veggies. I'd check with your surgeon, they should provide you with written instructions for the diet. I am using both Unjury and Nectar protein shakes.

I hear you, I can't believe I start my Pre-OP diet in 1 week. I am having a hard time sleeping with everything circling my head. PM me your email address and I'll send you the link for the videos.

Topic: RE: Self Awareness?

Thank you for your response. I admire that you worked on your impulsivness before going throught the surgery!

I understand that fear of regaining. I'm hoping that this fear will stay with me. I have heard about how ****y some people get after they lose the weight. That is why I am keeping a very good journal so I can revisit how I felt during this time. If you can't be honest with yourself and hold yourself responsible who will? I plan on seeing the very therapist who approved me at the hospital. She was a "matter of fact" and "I see it this way" kind of person. I like that. Good luck to you..I will think of you as well way up in MA. We will be going through this at the same time so stay in touch!
