I started my liquid diet on Thursday. It wasnt bad the first day. Kept myself busy today was horrid, I woke up with a bit of a migraine. . My muscles were so sore from Lord knows what and I faced "head hunger" tonight. Thats wasnt pretty but I got through it. I had the tiniest taste of some tuna that I made for son but other than that I was good. How many shakea do u do on your diet? I have to get 5 in amd finding it impossible. I can get 4, I will manage my time better tomorrow. With the 4 day weekend its hard to keep busy. I want to lounge on the couch but then that is where the head hunger comes in. I get bored lol Good luck on yours!! U got this! I can have sf pudding and sf jello, that saves me.

Ear plugs! I almost forgot those! I one who has to have white noice to sleep.. hospitals are so loud.. my heartbeat wil be white noice enough! Lol Phone charger is a great idea too! O could not live without my phone! Lol

That is good! I use it weekly as a treat now. The NUT says its a good choice! That will vanilla and a banana.. yummo

I see the NUT and the nurse tomorrow for my 2 wk pre op. Im both scared and excited! With all of us doing this at the same time we can lean on eachother and vent to one another.. right?? I have not gotten the gas x strips yet or the popsicles. But I will, anything else?

Liptons noodle soup is really good too.. just remove all the noodles. Plus one package can make like 8 cups

Did u ever get ahold of the doc? What did they say?

I have heard sip sip sip walk walk walk so many times.. I am so glad its working for you!! Any tios on what to bring and what not to bring??

Got my surgery date!!! January29th With the pre op diet (2 weeks) starting the 15th. I am so excited! I also just found out I will bo longer be working. So.... what to do with myself! Advice..

Not working is a great thing right now. This job was way to much stress.. way to long hours and just not a good fit. I have the option to come back of wanted but really i want to take this time and like u said get on a schedule and figure out what is gonna work for me and my son. ★THANK U SO MUCH★ For the congrats on both. I am so excited for this next chapter!! TMI question.. with the liquid diet do u have to go poo alot?? Just asking

Im getting sleeved on the 29th. Pre op is next Wednesday the 15th. I am so ready! A little nervous about the all liquids for 2 weeks. I am just glad its here finally! So what kind of stuff did u have for your liquid diet?

I finally got my date!! Pre op is the 15th and surgery is the 29th.. I am so nervous and excited to start the liquid diet! And pointers for me?? Thank u in advance!

I am so sorry to hear that u r sick! Try Cold eze! It cuts the cold in half! Liptons noodle soup strained is really nummy and soothes the sick feeling. Good luck!

So glad this post came alive again as I am new on here and LOVE to see this! I do not have a date yet but hopin for sometime this January.

COLD EASE!!

I have heard great things about the premier protein shakes. I use Pro fit by Itworks.com it is a powder that offers 14g of protein. Add in a few fruits and I have my meal. I am pre op still with no date yet. I jave been using this protein powder for about 3 months now. Love the taste. Good luck finding what works best for all of you. =)

Do u live in Spokane or will u be traveling? I am using Dr. Spitz from Rockwood. I am traveling and wanting to know how the road back home will feel on my new tummy. It would be great to pick ur brain when u r post op, and have someone to talk to who is using the same hospital/staff.. keep me informed.. maybe we could exchange numbers.

I am still waiting for a date to start my liquid diet. It will consist of 5 shakes and broth, jello anything sf and liquid. For 14 days. I am excited and nervous about this next chapter!

I am beyond excited for all of you! Please post how it goes and what your worries and thoughts are. I am still waitin on a date! Uhg this sicks

Of January? Im so excited for you! I am still waiting on a date! I am libel to take out an ad in the paper when I finally get a date! Lmbo

Ok so even with a 2 week diet I may be able to be squeezed in, in January. ..right? We r just waiting on the NUT report. I am very very VERY impatient! I wished I knew the final answer and had a date in mind. The waiting is driving be bonkers! Anyone else in the same boat?
