Day Two.... Pre-op Diet!

Well, I did okay on day one, but I am already weak. I have my TOM, A Strep Throat, and aches and pains all over my body. But here I am on Day Two. My husband went out to get me more protein shakes and pick up my anti-biotics. So I hopefully will be feeling better soon. My pre-op appt with the Surgeon's office is tomorrow. So I am hoping my Strep throat won't put a monkey wrench in my schedule.... Fingers Crossed. I am staying under 1000 calories as planned. I am loving soup since I am sick and protein shakes and Greek yogurt cool my throat nicely. I will blog again tomorrow after my appt. Wish me Luck!

    1. Hey Nikki... Yes, I am with Dr Williams at PENN. I would love to be Bariatric Buddies since you're in the same area as me. I have my facebook link on my blog profile... We could be support for each other, *Maria*

  4. I will keep my fingers crossed that you are still aok for the Surgery!!

    I too was sick before my Surgery, though not as severe as you!! I came down with a Cold, which turned into Bronchitis. Once I was done with my Antibiotics, I still had Sinusitis, which I was on even stronger Antibiotics for another 2 weeks! Luckily, I was over it within 2 weeks of Surgery, so....I was a go for Surgery.

    I have been doing really well. I have absolutely no pain from the Surgery, I have had no gas pain, etc either. But then I have always been lucky in that! I go in for my 2 week follow up to Surgery next Wednesday.

    I hope that you start to feel much better soon! Keep us posted on your condition and what the Doctor says.

  5. I'm so sorry that you are so sick!! I hope that you feel better soon, and the Surgery is still a go when you go in for your appointment.

    I too was sick before Surgery, though not nearly as serious as you!! I had a Cold, which turned into Bronchitis. After my Antibiotics was gone, I still felt blah, and found that I had Sinusitis, so I was put on another 2 weeks of a stronger Antibiotic, that finally did the trick!

    I am doing well, and in no pain whatsoever! I never even had gas pains from the Surgery, but then, I have always been lucky in that regard. I hope that you do just as well in your Surgery.

    Keep us posted on how you are doing, and let us know what the Doctor says after your appointment!
