I was approved by insurance last week.

My surgeon is Dr. Raymond Drew.

Mine is the 11th, I've never heard of anyone going on a skim milk diet pre-op. I'm starting my liquid medifast diet this Thursday and just want to get everything moving!!! Good luck to you!

Hi Keem,
I'm sure that I will probably be needing a swift kick every once in a while and the one thing I will need is support. Thanks and I can't wait to not only see and post progress.

My surgery is also June 9th. I will start my 2 week preop high protein low carb diet on May 24th and do my all liquid for 1 day June 8th. I am so glad my dr. doesn't like the all liquid for 2 weeks prior.
I can do the high protein low carb though.
Good luck to you,

I'm about 288 now, so my surgeon's goal is 148 pounds away and MY goal is 168 pounds away :)Woohoo!!!! June 8th!!!
We should be surgery buddies :)
I have to go in for an UGI and chest x-rays tomorrow.... then my pre-op appointment is on the 19th..... my two week diet starts on the 25th.... and my surgery is 10:00am on June 8th.
I worked towards all of this for so long.... I'm overwhelmed by how quickly it all came together once I got the approval. I cannot wait!!! :)
Good luck to you!!!! :)

My pre-op liquid diet is supposed to last for 14 days.
I'm slowly beginning to realize just how attached to food I really am... I'm already getting anxious.
I mean, it should be nothing since I've been on a 1400-calorie diet for almost 7 months now.... but it's still making me anxious. :)
