My doctor has me on a diet of 3 protein shakes per day plus a small TV dinner e.g. Lean Cuisine or Smart Ones and a minimum of 64 ounces of water a day. No milk products, fruit juices, or sports drinks. 6.5 pounds came off the first week so I guess it's working. I a not sure how uch he actually wants me to lose but anything is better than nothing, I suppose. Some days I am ok with this pre-op diet, other times I want to scream and when the latter happens, I drink more water :-)

Hi Brandi - You and I share our surgery day! It seems far away and yet so close too. I feel like there is a million things I need to do before it gets here.
I would love to share experiences!

Topic: June 9th Surgery Date!!
This is my first time posting. But I have been lurking for a long time! I just got approved for my surgery and I am so EXCITED! I am so nervous though. Now i have to do 4 weeks of nothing but skim milk "the milk diet" prior to surgery. This is NOT going to be easy, but I am motivated. I am hoping to make friends along the way that will be on the same journey I am on. I look forward to meeting all of you!
