My surgery is 10/15 and yeah...this pre-op diet sucks. I posted a thread in the RNY forum on 10/06. I am not going to post it here because it was pretty pathetic...lol. The responses have gone from sympathetic to advise to call my Doctor to tell him what I did to maybe I shouldnt have the surgery. The thing is...I am committed to the surgery. I decided that I would try cutting down to 1000-1500 calories. I know this isnt what my doctor asked but dayummmm....
After 5 days I weighed my self at my doctor's and I havent lost anything. I decided to try it again and see what happens. I need to know I gave it a real try and then if I dont lose weight then I can walk away guilt free. I am not trying to give anyone ideas but I asked around and some people didnt even have to go on a diet at all and I have a friend who has the same doctor as I do and he ate breakfast the day of his surgery. I think that is plain dumb. So we are all in this boat together.
Right now I am craving potatochips and pizza and spaghetti and Big Macs...lol. I am scared to eat them because I dont want to put weight on! I have decided that I am going to have a last meal though at a new Greek restaurant that I am dying to try. Anyway...thats me. I will stop back in to see how you all are doing. XO

I am not looking forward to the cath, either. Luckily, I won't be conscious when it goes in--but I will be when it comes out. Ugh. I hope I don't get my period right before surgery...
Good luck!
