calling all pre op dieters how are you doing????

I am doing ok have a slight headache ugh....13 days till my pre op appt I'll get my surgery date then it shouldn't be a far off from that date if it is I will be so upset they promised speedy surgery lol if did my part before hand so I am hoping within the first week of july what about you all how are you doing?

I am pre-op dieting right now.  I start my liquid liver shrinking diet on Monday.  It will consist of one week of 2 shakes and 1 small meal a total of 1200 calories a day, the next week will be complete liquid and a total of 800 calories.  My surgery date is set for July 6th.  I'm getting super excited and nervous all at the same time!  My surgery date was set about two months after my first pre-op appt with the surgeon.  I hope you don't have to wait that long!  Good luck!

I just started my 3 week pre op diet today. I'm hungry but doing okay. I'm on a lean protein diet and about 850 calories. I do this until one day before surgery and then just liquids that day. I'm scheduled for my sleeve on July 8th. Nervously excited! I just keep thinking about the end goal to get me through when I'm struggling.

Best of luck to you all!

The worst part for me has been the headache it's still here Ughhh

Headaches are really common if you're just starting a low carb diet. Try drinking a cup of broth a day and see if you feel better. Hang in there!  

 I start my liquid diet next Friday.  Surgery on July 10 .  I fell off the wagon with my reduced calorie diet but hopefully I'll get it together
