Hope everyone is doing well. I'm two days post op now and feeling good. My surgery was Thursday at 11:30 I left the hospital about 5. Yesterday I slept most if the day just taking in water as I felt nauseous. After getting medicine for nausea I feel so much better today. I have gotten in an Optifast and some chicken broth. I have pain when getting from sitting other than that the pain is not bad at a all. I have not taken pain meds since last night. So just wanted to update so new people heading in to surgery will know its not bad at all. The way I feel now I feel I'll be fine to go work on Monday;) Good luck banders hope your surgery goes well!

Hang in if you follow it to a T you will lose. I lost a bunch of water weight in the first few days. I swear I peed every 20 minutes all night and day lol I see a lot of people have liquid and food mine was all liquid 5 Optifast a day and the only other thing was water (lots) and I have a sugar free Popsicle at night. It's not going to be easy for any of us but there are a tremendous amount of success stories on here to keep motivated by;). Lets become one! Less than 40 hours away for me now

Lady I got them thru my surgeons office they require 2-3 week liquid diet preop. They cost $100 a week but its all you will for the week all meals son in that sense the $ is reasonable.
