My surgery date is Feb 11 I have been doing liquid diet for almost a week and a half after the first 2 days it got easier until today.. Friday we had a snow day(im a teacher) and with the weekend that was 3 days with no real schedule and now tomorrow ok s going to be a snow day....ugh....tomorrow I will need my extra strength.. But I will do it and keep my eye on the prize...so excited. Keep up the great work everyone and tell yourself YOU GOT THIS

My pre-op diet is all liquids for 2 weeks pre-op. I have to drink 3 protein shakes a day one for each meal and can have sugar free Popsicles and jello. Also broth. I am now on day 5 I can't say it is easy, it is a struggle but not un bearable. I keep going to frig to see what is there but then remember no eating. It is also hard because I have 2 young boys 8 and 10 so I still need to provide for them.

My date is February 11 and I am also a high school teacher from Massachusetts and will be returning to work on the 23 right after February vacation. I am hoping that is enough time off. Good luck everyone
