Hey everyone!!!! June 24th is the big day for some of us and I was wondering how everyone is feeling so far and how's every things going on the liquid diet etc... So chime in and let's support each other!!!!

Fantastic results!!!!! Congrats to you!!!!

My fist appt was in December... Had to do 6 month visits with my pcp and within those 6 month schedule appts with nut,heart doc, sleep study, psych etc... My paper work was submitted to insurance In May and it took about 3 weeks to hear back that I was approved....Had surgery this past June on the 24th... So this entire process took 6 months....

Congrats!!!! Have a safe flight!!!! Come back and let's us know how u are doing...and good luck!!!

Wishing all of u the best of luck!!!! Sending warm gentle hugs to u all!!! See u on the other side....

Right now at 3 weeks I can drink about 4-5 ounces.... I'm on soft foods now and to be honest after 3-4 small bites I'm finished....

Hey polar gonna try mashed today.... I've been good lost about 30 lbs as well... But it looks like things are starting to slow down now so I'm only gonna weigh my self once a week.... Gonna increase my walking time as well and see if that helps......

Just found out that my surgeon used a 42fr bougie....and the restriction is pretty good!!!! Can't have anything over 3-4 ounces...

I'm super happy for u!!!!! Congratulations!!!!!

Congrats!!!! And good luck!!!!! Sending warm and gentle hugs for u!!!!

Yup same thing here!!!! Water was definitely easier to get down at first then the protein after... Just give it some time...

Let me tell u that it gets better and better every single day!!!!! I'll be 2 weeks out tomorrow and I felt the same way last week and a few days after surgery.... I couldn't get any fluids down at all.... and now 2 weeks later I'm getting all my fluids in.... The pain is gone....and I can finally have a good night sleep sleeping on my side.... go easy and allow your body the time it needs to heal properly....with each day that passes it will get easier!!!! You'll see!!!

@kiks: I use 1 teaspoon of raw organic honey in my tea...

Costco's premier protein 30 grams of protein chocolate and vanilla.... Costs $25 for 18 cans in 1 pack...The chocolate is my favorite but the vanilla is good to u can add fruit to it, mio and other flavorings to create an awesome smoothie....I've had this brand before surgery... And I'm still drinking this brand after...it's pretty good!!!!

Praying for a speedy recovery!!!! Sending gentle hugs!!!!
