newbie

I had a complete meltdown today, not like me at all. Cried for a good 20 mins! Not really even sure why. Guess a mix of hunger and the thought of what's coming.
 
Hello! Are you all having the band? I'm having the band but not until late in October, couldn't fit it in earlier with work.

I've been reading around and am very confused about the range of different pre-op diets people seem to be doing. I am going with THG and my consultant said it would be milk and fat free yogurt for two weeks. Who are you all going with? It's really helpful hearing how other people are getting on...

Good luck everyone and hope it's been a good Sunday! :vibes:
 
Aww jax i hope yr ok hun maybe its just pre op nerves i think the thought of not knowing whats going to happen from here on in after all its not just another fad diet were on.If you want to talk hun feel free to give me a bell after all only a person who knows what yr going through and feeling maybe able to help. I had a row with my fella before is feels like him an his daughter have been on a sweet, biscuits,an cake fest this weekend maybe its always been like that an i have never noticed before because i was as bad as them :(

Hi, I am with THG too, I was told the milk & you diet but hate milk! Tried it day one and was sick so rang them and asked if I could do Slimfast instead. I was told I could do 2 Slimfast and one low fat/ low carb meal but opted to stay liquid otherwise I think I would end up eating too much.
My daily diet has been:
1 Slimfast (in blender with ice makes a lovely frothy shake)
Oxo drink or two
WW soup or two
Lots and lots of juice and water
Tea/ coffee

And I've dropped 16lbs in two weeks

Hi Karen, I had row with hubby too, and just the same it was because of him eating!! Then came the tears.......!!
 
Hi gem yes we're all having the band with the hospital group on Tuesday :) I was not given the option of milk an yogurt diet I was on 1000 cal diet was very hard the first week but I was not so bad the second I kept to the diet sheet they emailed me it seems to have worked for me I have lost 10lb on my pre op still 2 days to go altho I was worried for a bit as I had no weight loss for 4 days over a week in but all seems good now I'm still calm at the moment but I think Jax is getting a little nervous now but I'm sure we will all be fine :)
 
Hats off to them who have done slim fast for there pre op I just thought I'd try it out for after my op then I remembered why I never stuck to that diet there do yukkkkkkkkk :(
 
I have quite enjoyed the Slimfast. I put a whole tray of ice cubes in the blender and whizz the whole lot up.....it comes out really frothy and lovely. I don't buy the powder but the ready mixed bottles and love it.
 
Or jax bless ye, its strange emotions at the minute. I'm excited, nervous, hungry, scared, a full range......

Not long now x
 
I have bought 2 tins of powder I just whisked it up will try the blender next time :) was going to get the bottles but there were £8 for 6 in tesco thought that was a bit steep
 
I got the slimfast ready made in asda 4 for 5 pound. Think bodycare do them for 99p but I never go in town x
 
Well girls I'd like to say 1 more sleep but I don't think any of us will get 1 with our early starts in the morning. Would also like to say we ARE doing the right thing no more yoyo diets for us a new slimmer us from here on in. Look forward to meeting you both tomorrow at the start of our journey together and thank you for your support over the past 2 weeks you really helped me get through it. Xxxxxxxxxx
 
First tears today! Think its cos its getting that close x god help me tomorrow x
 
Aww Hun I'm sure everything will be fine I think the thought of what's going to be done is worse than what actually gets done. My sister had major brain surgery in February an she's on top of the world now to look at her now you would never no what she went through. Im sure in a couple of days we will be glad we done it. But it is feeling all so real now an I for 1 are looking forward to seeing the new me . Xxxx
