I woke up with a splitting head and an awful taste in my mouth. I have had my protein drink, took my meds (including Tylenol for the headache) had a Popsicle and of course water. Nothing was helping the headache and I just felt sickly. I decided to try some Cambells Creamy cheesy potato and bacon. Omg!!! It was heaven!!! My headache is gone and I feel like I ate a meal!! I hope this will help others get thru this!!! Good luck to all, we can do this!! To me it's a small price to pay for our healthy lives we have to look forward to!!!

I am having surgery on Nov 3rd and I am looking for a Buddy!! Somekne to swap stories with, things like that!!

@wannaBthinsoon. I am sure you are correct about the majority of the people on here, but I have read some very negative things all over this site. I will get my support from the people I know and love but thank you for your concern. Good luck to all. There are no chunks what's so ever, it is creamy like gravy with no chunks!

Thank you nnv!! I appreciate what you said, and you are correct, that soup is on my list of things I can drink on my liquid diet. I definetly would not drink ANYTHING that is not on the approved list. And I am surprised at the negativity on this site, we are all imperfect, that is why we are doing this surgery, otherwise we could do it on our own. I don't need this negativity on my journey. I will not be coming back to this site!!

I am 50 and 4 days away from surgery and I am wondering the same thing!! Although I think everyone is different as far as elasticity and stuff. I would love to hear some feed back!

Oh no, it is standing still. I'm on my way to my Pre-Op appt now!!! At least that is getting me closer. I am having trouble concentrating at work. This is all I can think about!! Hope you are doing better than me!!

cool! Is it just me or does it seem like time has started to slow down? Maybe it's just me being anxious!

Ok Heather, that's cool!! I am from Iowa!

Hi Renee!! Glad you are doing good!! I don't know about you but I am going nuts with excitement. It's the first time I want the weekend to get over with!!! Where are you from?

Awesome Cassie! Are you on any kind of Pre-op diet? Where are you from? I am from Iowa, me surgeon is Dr Cahalan. Are you nervous?

Omg, I can imagine! I have been reading lots of post about the liquid diet!! I feel so bad for all of you that have to do that. I am sure it will be worth it in the end, but dang that would be tough. How are you holding up?

Hello!! I am on a 1200 calorie diet for 2 weeks and then liquid diet 2 days before surgery. How about you?

Hello! My surgery date is Nov 3rd. I am on my 2 week, 1200 calorie diet, but I feel bad for all of you. I only have a liquid diet for 2 days before surgery. It is weird how different Dr.'s are. Hope you all stick with it!!! I am sure it will be worth it in the end.
