I feel the same way i have my fiance my one and ayear and half old little girl my best friebd lives no where near me and is a medical student and my fiance is trying to sabotage my liquid diet as we speak. I feel alone this forum and my youtube channel people really are so supportive dont listen to your mom you cant fail bc you have a life to live and children to love and care for. They are so important its unreal. Best of luck. -
Day 3 Liquid Diet, surgery Jan29 and SO is being ridiculous and causing a fight for no reason.
-
So a week before my preop liquid diet i did my own thing. I made sure to drink my water excercise everyday with my walking video and make better choices instead of a burger an fries at mcds i got a side salad an a side of grilled chicken an a yogurt parfait. That kind of stuff, now I am day 3 of liquids and I am so happy in the last 13 days I have lost 10 pounds!!! I feel great!! I haven't lost this much in over a year! Down from 330 (pre 6 months of bariatric testing) down to 311.8 !!!! I am thrilled, to anyone struggling you can do it. I am the biggest couch potato/ sweetavoire i know and I am doing it!

Me toooo congrats to everyone we will be on the losers bench in 9 days!!! -
So i had a unjury shake w milk this morning and all i can say is funkalicious. Like the chocolate is good but for breakfast no. Please help what do you mix in your shakes to spice it up an make it palitable? I can have juice coffee tea water an broth help
-
I think ill break up the unflavored scoops to 2 seperate drinks cause a scoop in one drink is too nasty i am like desperately trying to hold down each gulp. Second nastiest thing ive ever had.
-
So its ' lunch time' at work and i mixed an unflavored in my crystal light its frothy and smells like butt i added an extra packet of crystal light and its still funky i dont think ill use much unflavored.
-
Thank you everyone for the suggestion I am off to the store to get coffee an sf syrup. You guys are my saviors!
-
Yeah I thought it was weird too, i started my diet today all i have to say in funkalicious like its alright but a thick chocolate shake for breakfast is no egg an cheese. Congrats on ur surgery!! My pre op appt is the 24 let me know how urs goes!

So I got my approval and I an scheduled for surgery jan 29th I am incredibly nervous and excited-ish and arghhh all at once. I have a one and a half year old and it breaks my heart to be so far away from her and not being able to lift and play with her for 6 weeks but I want to live an be happy to see her and my future children grow up. I want to break my familiez cycle of dyin of heart diseases blood pressure issues and diabetis an obesity. I will no longer let myself live to eat, there is so much more to life I am 23 I have a happy future to look forward too. If anyone has any words of encouragement or wisdom to give please say it. These nerves and anxiety are taking thier toll, wish I had more family support and understanding.
-
So everynight I go to sleep at like 4-5am cause i keep thinking about my surgery, tomorrow starts my liquid diet and i am feeling seriously anxious. I hope this 9 days flies by.
