Thanks. Just taking it easy. I went to GNC And bought 7 packs of 4 protein shakes. The were on sale for 249 each. I was like awesome. I tried them and really like them. 25 gms of protein 1 gm of sugar and like 120 calories. SCORE

Thanks so much. I'll keep everyone posted. My surgery is at 730 am too.

After your released form the hospital, how long were you on the Clear liquid diet? I'm going to my moms afterward and want to pack any thing i'll need for the week after. So what did you eat up to 1 week after? My book says only clear liquid diet for 2 days..then on to full liquids? Is that correct?

Like the others said..Get back on the horse and go forward. I'm on day 13 of my liquid diet. I have cheated a few times with Cottage cheese, Creamed Soup or pickles. I just got back on it right away and plugged forward. I can already tell i've lost weight, I will find out tomorrow when i get weighed in before my surgery. I was at the point if i drank one more chocolate shake i was going to puke. I found weekend the HARDEST for me. I wasn't busy with work, life. A lot of time on my hands was dangerous. I've never cleaned so much in my life..LOL All the best to you on your journey!

I'm just curious...I''m having my surgery on Monday May 12th. After Surgery what does the hunger feel like? Are you eating just to sustain or are you really hungy? Does the PRE-opt hunger change after surgerY? I'm just curious. I'm doing good on the liquid diet but I woke up in the middle of the night STARVING! I just drank a big glass of Water then went back to bed.

I can totally relate! I'm on day day 12 and having my surgery on Monday. Just keep plugging away..it DOES get easier every day. I have found keeping busy is the key to staying on track. GOOD LUCK!

I'm having my surgery on Monday May 12th. I'm so ready to move onto the next phase of this process. I'm a little nervous but have done everything that has been asked preop. The liquid diet was very hard for me but for the most part i've stuck to it. Anybody who says this is the easy way out has NO idea. I'm just glad i made the decision to pursue this and am looking forward to the healthy life that is ahead of me. Good luck everyone this month!

Way to go! I'm getting nervous for my surgery on May 12th. How many nights were you in the hospital for?

So I've been on the Liquid diet for 7 days..7 more to go. Today I had to get my blood drawn to determine my Blood type. I got weighed too and have lost 15LBS on the liquid diet. Surgery is scheduled for next Monday. I only had a few times where I had to put something in my stomach and did. I ate ATKINS meals or a small piece of chicken breast. I'm going to try like heck this week to only drink the liquid diet. I"ve been going to the GYM every morning and walking 2 miles. That has made a HUGE difference and believe it or not i'm enjoying it. I feel soo good afterward and love jamming to my 80's music while walking. So total before surgery i'm down 37LBS. Here is to a good week on the liquid diet!!!BTW I HATE sleeping with the CPAP machine I can't wait to get off that stupid thing! So I've been on the Liquid diet for 7 days..7 more to go.

I'm having my surgery on Monday May 12th. I've been on the liquid diet for 7 days...yesterday I had cottage cheese and an Atkins Meal so i cheated. I guess it wasn't a bad cheat but back on the wagon today. I was just to HUNGRY and felt like i was going to puke all day so i had a little chicken and green Beans. 7 Days till surgery and i'm nervous and excited at the same time. I've already lost about 10 lbs and have been working out 45 min each day.

I"m scheduled for May 12th. I'm on Day 5 of liquid diet! Going good but I did have cottage cheese and some baby bell cheese. That seemed to help. Also been hitting the treadmill for 30 min all week. I
