traceyinflorida 499 Posted July 6, 2012 I did it. I only cheated once and I lost 15 lbs. I waited too long for the surgery to chance screwing it up by not following the pre-op diet. I was afraid that if I didn't do it right, I would be told they had to post pone the surgery or worse, I would cause a complication during surgery. The first four days was brutal, but after that it became pretty easy once the carbs and sugar are out of your system. Good luck! Share this comment Link to comment

Marty McSkinnystein 342 Posted July 6, 2012 Started today. I actually feel like I'll be "eating" more healthily than I have in a long time-- with the protein shakes and forcing myself to get in enough water and not eating junk. I have energy today after my first shake and huge glass of water. So I think I'll resign myself, because it's going to happen anyway, that it's awesome and I love it. (Don't worry I'll be back to complain- lol) 1 dlahouston reacted to this Share this comment Link to comment
dlahouston 0 Posted July 7, 2012 I start tomorrow. And am totally NOT looking forward to it. Ugh! [/quotonly e] It's very hard...especially if you have kids or are always out and about. And for some reason, all it seems as though all the food commercials are on full blast. Some Drs only require 1 day fast, lucky them Share this comment Link to comment
hnybun128 2 Posted July 7, 2012 I'm on day 7 of 14 and I've already lost 13lbs. The first two days were awful. It's a little better now, but I'm still having a hard time this evening. Share this comment Link to comment
Marty McSkinnystein 342 Posted July 8, 2012 night 2-- went shopping today and got SUCH a variety of things so I won't be bored with plain old chocolate shakes. My favorite-- cream of wheat w/cinnamon. It's on the list of things allowed 5 times a day-- with yogurt, pureed soups, sugar free applesauce. I'm mixing it up. I was so depressed earlier today and am starting to feel better. Tomorrow I cut back even more on coffee (everyday I'm going a little less). Share this comment Link to comment
