Yes, this has definitely happened to me. I tried to have all of my favorite foods up until the night before my fast. I had actually put on 4lbs doing it!. But now I am on my last day of my 8 day fast and I have dropped 7lbs. Tomorrow is my day and I am so ready! -

Calling November 5 Through 9 Sleevers !
CoCo41 replied to Savedbyamazinggrace's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't think I am , I am suppose to drink 5 Protein shakes and can't seem to find one I like enough to drink it. I do plan on posting from the hospital I am taking my laptop. For my Dr he normally has us do a two day stay in the hospital after surgery. So I will definitely keep you updated on my progress. -

I'm HUNGRY! I will be so glad when the pre-op diet is over I won't know what to do. I will be happy when 11/6 gets here. I am a little anxious but definitley not going to change my mind I have come to far for that. -
This is nice to hear...I am getting really nervous for my up coming surgery which is just this Tuesday. I am hoping I have the same experience as you do.

CoCo41 replied to BizTraveller's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
You look awesome, congrats on your weight loss! -
Ready for next Tuesday to jump to the other side of the fence. So ready to be sleeved and begin an awesome journey!

I only had to do a week of the pre-op liquid diet. I am down 4lbs already since Tuesday and really looking forward to 11/6. It took the first two days to really get into the swing of things and not think about how hungry I am constantly. Now it's no big deal, I know what's waiting for me at the end of the tunnel and I can't wait!

I am getting really nervous. @Tatylish I see your on the same day as me, please keep in touch and let me know how your doing. Liquid consist of: low sodium broth SFJello SF popsicle Muscle milk light protien shakes Water
