I was one of those pre op diet people. I just kept telling myself this is temp. Next year I will enjoy some of the good food in smaller quantities. And I will be smaller than a few family members... It wasnt hard.....well maybe the mashed potatoes and stuffing called me alot. But I didnt give in.

Month 2- 16.8
I have completed the nutrition appointments, psych exam, sleep study, EKG (I had to do a nuclear stress test, they found damage to my heart, stated that it seems I had a silent heart attack at some point) Got all my paperwork for my weight history for 5 years. Once all of that was completed and my papers sent into insurance it took 1 week to get the approval. I started all of this back in August, surgery is set for Monday, Dec 2nd and I started my liquid diet yesterday. I am ready for this.
My Surgery will be on Monday Dec 2nd. Seems I am one of the first of the Dec Buddies :)
Dottie, I think the liquid diet has been a great introduction to the new lifestyle we are about to start. It hasn't been too bad. I'm on day #10. Surgery is Wed for me. I told everybody I was having surgery, so I've been able to talk freely about it. Everyone has been so supportive. Good luck!
Ditto. I will be looking forward to hearing about your experiences. Best wishes to all you early December surgery buddies.
Our December surgeries start on Monday and I just want to send everyone well wishes, good thoughts and prayers of healing as we all start our journey to a healthier us. I know I'm ready for mine on the 4th, so let's do this!!!!
