In 1 week...
I am scheduled to have my vsg next Monday!
I have been trying to do the liquid diet but I cant stop eating all the candy, well I have been on protein shakes but I really need to stay away from all the Snickers and Twix on everyones desks!
Whats the point of drinking shakes if I am going to end up having about 400 calories of just candy, right?
I am on day 6 of 2 week preop. Cranky, hungry, have a bit of a cold. It ain't pretty. But, my surgeon said they can tell if you don't do the 2 weeks right and they have pulled right back out and refused to do a surgery because the fat around the liver was not reduced. So here I sit hungry and cranky and drinking crystal light!!
I am scheduled for 11/5/12 and am on the Phase II of the pre-op diet. Mostly yogurt, milk, fruit, veggies and protein shakes. I have avoided all the sweets and starches as they asked and made it through the craving, cranky part pretty much. However, there are times when I really want to eat something, so now I have chosen veggies or fruit. I cannot deal with this too much longer, but want to have this not be a problem post operatively. One less thing to deal with after the surgery. Give yourself a break! you deserve it! This is for me, no one else, and I am going to make it!.
