Its NHS funded but having it at the Alexander hospital in Cheadle, very posh they may not let me in

I'm having mine there too. Although it's self funded. Who is your surgeon? What pre op diet are you doing?

Mr Senepati, I havent met him yet as originally it was someone else. Im doing the milk diet as I was sent both options and thought with a busy job and family itd be the easier option, not having to 'think' too much about food x
Will you just meet him on the day?
I hate milk. Makes me Vom. But I'm going to give it a go on Monday - I have only been asked to do it for 10 days.
Just re read the info to get my head around it but I'm pretty confused as to what I should buy for when I come out of hospital. Liquid only for 2 weeks - wonder if I could make some fine soup in my soup maker and freeze in tiny pots. What protein shake would people recommend??

I used Ufit protein shakes.
Thanks I looked at these but couldn't work out which one and if the sugar content was high.
That's one of my worries - how samey it will be. Didn't know you could get protein water though.

info taken from Tesco online - 22g protein and no added sugar, meaning the sugars are from the milk. I lost ok on them and they didn't upset my blood sugars

I am sorry, but I cannot remember.
Hi I'm new her today. My surgery is 23 Nov. Scared but excited. Good luck to you all.
After 5 days of the milk diet ive switched to the 800 calorie food option today, I was told I could do either and opted for milk out of ease or so I thought, but I was getting so fed up of it I was struggling to get enough in, I never thought a salad could taste so amazing
The milk diet is tough going!!! How you feeling otherwise??

Like im on the big one at blackpool, such an emotional rollercoaster, I go from petrified to excited and back again so quickly, next tuesday still feels so far away, wish it was sooner if only to stop me thinking too much x
