My doctor gave me 3 pre-op diet options: all protein shakes, or only lean meat and veggies, or a mix of both. I really want to lose some weight and I'm not sure what option will be best for me. My plan for now is to start out with the shakes and trade off with the meal plan, on every other day. But, I wish I knew which option would be the best for me. What a pain.
I've been on pain meds since my tooth extractions and I'm so sick of it. I want the pain to stop so that I don't have to worry about constipation. There will be enough of that in 2 weeks when I have my surgery.
I feel like a cliché - nervous about the diet and operation and worrying about my decisions and wondering if I can be a success at the post op dieting. I want to lose this weight and get off all the meds that I'm on. Or, at least some of the meds.
Think positive, Laura. Okay - in 3 months, I will be on the other side of the surgery and I will be successfully leading myself into a healthier body. I will succeed in post op weight loss and will reach my goal!
