Suz Topic: RE: PRE OP DIET
My doctor required a 10 day pre op diet consisting of protein shakes, clear liquids, sugar free jello, sugar free pudding, and low fat cottage cheese (no more than three dairy servings a day). I had my surgery on Feb. 27th and really felt like it helped me prepare for what was to come. Good luck!

I know the feeling girl! I can't wait to be the hottie that I used to be! My surgery is on the 15th... I was really worried until I had my pre-op visit and now the 15th can't get here soon enough!

Rita!
My surgery is 3/15 and my Dr. pushes the pre-op diet in order to shrink your liver by depleting your glycogen levels in your liver. This makes laproscopic surgery easier (according to him).
For 10 days I can have 3 servings of cottage cheese, veggies with no butter or oils on them, fruit, diet sodas, broth and sugar free popsicles.
I'm on day 4 and I won't lie, it is difficult... but it has made me see the light about changing my eating habits. Right now I would be satisfied if I could have a bite of a hamburger - not the whole darn thing...
If you have access to a fax I could fax over the diet that he gave me - it's a little more detailed...

Hello I'm Johanna
Congratulations on your date, when you get the Lap band you will feel like a total diffrent person, I had gastric bypass in sept of 2006 and i feel great and look great too lol, i know a couple of people that had lap band done at my support group and they lost a lot of weight and they look great, you are young you still have your whole life ahead of you, so keep up the good work. Make sure that you follow all of your doctor's instructions. Good luck and take care of yourself.
