January 2014 surgeries

My op is scheduled for the 17th Jan at St Mary's in Paddington.

Current weight is about 24stone (I think)

Started my low carb diet today, it has been a struggle to say the least. Craving food I've never craved before ?

3 weeks and 2 days to go! I can't wait. Nerves have come and gone and I'm feeling positive. Milk diet starts New Year's Day and I'm all prepared with a new coffee machine which froths your own skimmed milk and some tasty sugar free syrup flavours. New pj's for hospital and now just need some vitamins :) Bring it on!

My prep. Now only 18 days till surgery. Can't wait but still stressing over leaving the baby. I've not left him for more than an hour and only a couple of times. It's going to break my heart :-(
 
Thanks. He will be my incentive to get up and about and home as fast as possible. There will be no stopping me. I can just see it now.... Bubba photos out on the ward to show all the staff and fellow patients. Forced to coo over a strangers offspring lols !!!! ;-)
 
Just think, he will only ever remember a healthy looking mummy oppose to a bigger one! You are going it for the right reasons. Xx

OMG it's nearly January. Are you all excited to start your new life. I got all my confirmation paperwork yesterday. It's all real. Just want it to happen now. I hate waiting.
 
I can't wait, it's been a long time coming!! I'm currently on my low carb pre op diet, just worried incase my liver doesn't shrink enough!
 
What diet are you following. start mine on 1st and just trying to meal plan but hard to make it not boring and have some variety.
 
It's a low carb low cal diet, so 100g of carbs a day and it's between 800-1000 calories.

I can have plenty of veg and salad for dinner. And a 100g of fish/quorn/meat, or a small chicken breast with that aswell. 2 portions of fruit a day, plenty of water and low calorie squash.

On day 3 and it is abit of a struggle. Craving chocolate even though I was never a big fan of chocolate before lol
 
Hi Danielle88 I'm day 4 pre-op diet and I agree with u it's a bit of a struggle with all the Christmas food/ sweets still in my house. Think I will give it away tomorrow after family call round this afternoon.
 
Hi Corgi7, thankfully there is no Christmas food in my house as I went to my mums, only healthy food now! Just trying to think of alternative ways to cook things so I don't get bored
