Topic: RE: How much will I probably loose on Pre-Op Diet? Did you loose any weight if so how much?
I was on 10 days of nothing but skim milk and Carnation Instant Breakfast drinks. I lost 13 lbs for surgery. At the time, I thought it was awful. Now 9 days post op, it sounds like heaven, after a week of clear liquids only! Good luck to you!

My doctor doesn't even require a pre-op diet, so I started a liquid diet the other day myself. I've lost 6 pounds in 5 days!
Topic: RE: Gastric Sleeve ....Scheduled for 12/21......New to Board, Too
Haha - I definitely hope to see less of you here soon, too!!!
Our anxieties are normal, and I can't imagine how crazed I'll be this time next week, but you'll be back to the board by then to tell me all will be well ;)

Hi Lyndsey,
Thanks for the reply. As I mentioned I am new to this so am slooooooowwwww to respond. I have less than 48 hours until my procedure and am having much anxiety over it. I am very excited but yet fearful too. I will have my husband at the hospital the day of surgery but he will return to our home a couple of hours away. I will not see him again until time to be released from the hospital on Dec 23/24. I do hope your parents are able to make it there for your surgery. If not your parents then is someone else?
I will question the nausea fear once I am admitted in the hospital with hopes that it is taken care of. The doctor is very experienced so I think I will be fine. Just anxiety taking hold of me needlessly.
Thanks for the welcome and well wishes. I do hope I see LESS of you here real soon! Smile, I mean that kindly!
