I am going to a doctor in Sherman TX. He just told me Monday that my liguid diet was only one week prior to surgery and I can have a small meal everyday that consists of protein and veggies. He said this was to help shrink my liver so their would be less risk during surgery . I really don't know the answer to your question about your dr.'s weight loss goal for you. Surely not, though - if we were able to do this weight loss devil on our own we wouldn't reaching out for help. I certainly hope that will be the case for you. Best of luck to you on your surgery and keep in touch!

wow!! that is great, thanks so much for the info. I will definitely check that out.

Also....best of luck with your surgery! I understand how you feel about not really being prepared. I had convinced myself that I was not going to be approved...I guess so I wouldn't be too disappointed if I didn't....and now I feel like I am in a whirlwind! :-)

Well...I just went to my pre-op visit on Monday of this week. I have to do two liquid meals per day and one "sensible" meal, preferably lean meat and veggies one week prior to my surgery. The nutritionist I visited had told me two weeks, so I was happy about it only being one week prior!!!

Congrats to you Donna! Are you nervous????
