Day 2 of the 1200 calorie pre-op diet...
Okay, so my surgery is scheduled for the 29th...my surgeon put me on a 1200 calorie pre-op diet. High protein, low carbs, as much fresh veggies as I want. I think the hardest thing so far has been not being able to eat as much fruit as I want - I did Weigh****chers before this diet, and they let you have as much fruits and veggies as you want.
And then...I came on here and I see many of you are on a pre-op all liquid diet...I'm just gonna, you know, shut up about my fruits and veggies...
I'm so grateful that you are all here...I feel sometimes like I'm in this alone, and I'm really not. I have the support of my husband, and I know there's people out there who are going through the same thing I am. Thank you! :)

I was on a diet similar to yours and after reading about the liquid diets I was very thankful also. I lost 9 on preop and it was fairly easy for me.
The support you will get here is amazing!! It has helped me so much in the almost 7 months post op. I am on my own and this is pretty much all of my support. These people are great to help with all the questions you may have! Just ask.
Good luck on your journey!
