Terance ✌❤️????

One of my favorites was taking about a 1/4 cup black refried beans and adding some of the brine (juice) from jarred mild jalapeños. Put in a small oven proof dish and sprinkle a bit of your favorite cheese on top ( I like co-jack). Bake at 350 until cheese is melted. I would add a small amount of lite sour cream or very ripe avocado.... YUMMY! Still to this day I love this (5 months out).

Gummies do not have iron in them. Women could risk anemia.

Made my fluids and got about 45 - 50 gm Protein. I am thinking that my internal swelling is my limiting factor. I just ran out of time to swallow anything else . Total of about 350 calories today and feel absolutely no desire to eat, drink, or anything. Very, very odd. Starting my Vitamins tomorrow.

I have heard no hotter than 140 degrees F for protein mix ins. Otherwise it will kind of gel up.

I have no idea how you are getting so much liquid down, but that's awesome! We are doing well!! Oh I haven't done it yet That is my goal for food type stuff. I am struggling getting enough fluids down. The shakes are going down easier than expected though.

No real hunger, but definitely weak. Going to try to get two Protein shakes in today, which will be 320 calories and 60 grams of protein. I mixed a chocolate and vanilla one together since they both taste better diluted. I also thinned a bit with skim milk, so there is a bit more protein coming in there. The shakes actually taste pretty good, so that's a good sign. Hope I can get it all down today.

Swallowing is so weird now. It's like you can feel the liquid stop at a certain point and then drain on down. Very odd.

Received the call and I'm schedule for surgery tomorrow at 9:30am. Going to buy a loose dress to wear to and from surgery so that nothing will touch my stomach and the incisions. Taking pics tonight so I will never forget. New life and new body starting tomorrow!!! Got my time too... Report at 6:30, surgery at 8:30 so I must be the first. Decided to wear comfortable yoga pants to and from. I live in Ohio and it is supposed to snow tonight, so should probably wear pants ???? Getting ready to take my shower with special soap, then repeat in the morning. May do pics after my shower... We'll see ???? Good thoughts and prayers for everyone tomorrow! Catch ya on the flip side!

Right there with ya beautiful! 8:30 am!

tomorrow! Expect a call anytime with my time.... Clear liquids today (not mandatory from surgeon, but seemed like a good idea)... My kids are showing some anxiety, but are being very supportive. Going to stay hydrated and relax all day since I took a vacation day for 'mental' prep. Talk to you all soon! Teri

You got this! Hang in there!

3 days! Managed to lose another 8 pounds this past week. My liver should be in good shape. Spoke to a friend of mine who had the same procedure last July. Her testimony was fantastic! She really put me at ease and was just what I needed to hear. Underland, here I come!

2/9 here also! Let's do this people!

I'm 2/9/16 also!! Let's keep in touch! Me too! There are several of us

Congratulations! How are you feeling?
