Topic: RE: Cheers to my preop diet!
I start my pre-op diet on March 6. Our surgeon wants us to drink between 60-80gms of protein a day (they estimate that to be about 4 shakes) and we can have unlimited broth, sf jello, crystal light, propel etc. We're also allowed a 1/2 cup or sf pudding or carbmaster yogurt a day.
I'm hoping that the days go by quick once I start it as we have to do it for the 2 weeks before and the 2 after. Fun Times!!!
Oh I'm doing great by the way LOL!

Topic: Cheers to my preop diet!
I started my 2 week optifast preop today. OMG, surgery is really getting close now. I can have optifast, sf jello, water and crystal light... and that is it! They want me to loss 20 lbs by March 5 (day before surgery) and I have to weigh in at the office and prove that I have or they will cx my surgery. ACCK! LOL
How's everyone else doing?

I wish we had a "like button" we could use on other's posts, because I would be using the heck out of it on this March Dates topic!
So excited for all of us! I'm just 5 days away from starting the optifast phase of my pre-op. I think that will be when it really hits home that I am really going to be able to have this surgery and find the healthier woman in me.
How's everyone else feeling now that we are getting closer to March?
