Hey guys I'm doing well after surgery with Dr. Cobourn. My port site is still very sore. But I'm healing well. Have my first follow up appointment tomorrow morning. I'm currently on mushy foods. Great change from liquids. Down 25 lbs since pre op liquid diet to now excited for this journey !

I'm feeling much better than I was 3 days ago. The gas pains were the worst. I can sleep on my side now which is awesome! After the surgery it's like I had buyers remorse after. But everyday it gets better and the happier I get with my decision. The only issue I'm having right now is getting enough water in. But I'm working on it !

Hello! My surgery is on June 12 with Dr.Coburn with SWLC I'm on day 4 of shakes and vegetables. I typically like veggies but it kinda sucks they have to be steamed or or raw . At first I didn't like the shakes but I found that adding instant coffee to them makes it much better ! I'd rather the shakes then the veggies at this point .. 10 more days to go

Pre op diet Day 7 of low glycemic veggies and shakes. Felt so sick to my stomach and hungry today that I caved and had 3 slices of whole wheat bread with my cauliflower... I was doing so well!

14 days before surgery diet

I'm on day 5 of my liquid diet and it is difficult in only allowed to have the slim time shakes 3 times a day and low glycemic veggies. Raw or steamed. For myself adding instant coffee to the shakes makes them tasty and adding mrs dash no salt seasoning makes the steamed veggies bearable . -
Wow! Good luck to you as well
