I have only told a few coworkers who are also close friends.  I have my own office at work so I just stay in there during lunch so I don't have to watch them eat.  

 

I am am finding today particularly difficult.  It was so hard to walk into the house after work and smell the pulled pork I made the rest of the family for supper.  I feel like I have been starving all day long!  I really feel unwell.  I am so tired and my head is just pounding.  I sure do hope this gets easier ;(

I just started the pre-op diet today.  I was told that it was normal to not go as often, as youre not taking in the food.  I was told a laxative was fine.  Hope it works.  Peter

Anybody else struggle with constipation during their preop diet?  Only 2 days in and feeling uncomfortable already.  Can we take Miralax or anything?

I agree! It's so stressful. I keep saying I think I can I think I can. It was hard at work today with everyone offering food. I just said no thanks I'm not hungry because I haven't told anyone exactly what I am having done.

I started my boost diet last december 22  and had my surgery jan 6. Here I am 1 year later and down 152 pounds. It is so worth it, the boost is the hardest part to get through!

Hi All, I spoke with Dr. B's office on Moncton and the receptionist told me that the surgeries being done in December of 2014 were patients who signed their final papers in June of 2014.  I signed in August of 2014 and was told that it would be closer to Feb. 2015 before I get my call.  I will keep you all informed if I hear anything/
