Hello

Thanks for replying . wow 26lbs in 5 weeks . good for you

How long you got to do your pre op diet for ? My friend was under the same hospital as me and she had to do the milk diet for 4 weeks and wasnt given the option for low carb one , just goes to show how they vary from person to person . Btw what does a low carb pre op diet consist of? Never known anyone to be on it before.

I am just pleased its all systems go and the reality of everything is still sinking in

All the best - MeJulie x x

Hi Julie Congratulations on getting your OP date. I had a Gastric Band on 3 June this year so I am just coming up to 3 weeks post op and moving onto sloppy foods.

I did the milk diet and found it really hard going even though I love milk and yogurt.

Good luck for your OP.

Hi Julie

Congrats on getting your date! If it was me I would go for the food option. I had to do slimfast with fruit and veg which was very easy to stick to. Not sure if I would stuck to milk diet, I think it would of put me off the stuff for life x

Excellent news Julie, you have been waiting such a long time. You start you pre-op the day before my birthday, not that I will be doing much celebrating this year as I will only be 10 days out. I have to start my milk diet on Thursday of this week. Good luck.
