    Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet....

    Yeah, I'm under 600 calories a day and at the point where I don't care if I have the meal or not but like everything else it depends on the Doctor and I'm pretty sure my being a diabetic is another reason Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet....

    I'm on day 5 of my liquid diet, it goes get better, I've had a small meal like a lean cuisine each night and 3 Protein shakes, lots of Water, sugar free Popsicles and broth, it does get easier but it does feel like you're going to die at first. Just keep telling yourself the outcome is worth what you're feeling right now Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    March Surgery!

    I'm scheduled for surgery on March 11th! in excited and nervous at the same time. This 2 week liquid diet which I'm now 5 days into is so far the hard part! I hate the shakes and Vitamins and look forward to the one small meal I'm allowed. I've got to say considering I started out hangry it's getting easier with each passing day! One more week and it will be my day Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  6. Yes and no, I wasn't feeling to well going into day 3 and the shakes and Vitamins I purchased are nasty so I'm literally choking them down but I bought them because the doctor said they were perfect. The vitamins taste like adult Flintstone vitamins! I'm definitely going to have to change this post surgery so I'm not choking them down! I'm looking forward to dinner because I'm allowed the small meal! I've noticed my sugar has been lower as well so I'm hoping that my diabetes goes away post op as well. I've been getting most of my support and information online from groups and forums and even YouTube videos Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  7. Hi! I'm having my surgery on March 11th! I'm on day 5 of my 2 week pre-op liquid diet. I'm so excited and anxious at the same time and can't wait for this to be over already! Not going to lie but this liquid diet is BRUTAL the first few days! My doctor actually allowed me to have sugar free Jello and broth as well as a small lean cuisine meal or 3 ounces of food in the evening. This has definitely been quite the journey getting to this point! I'm 5'8 and 305, my height at weight in a long time. I'm 38 and not trying to die before my time. I've been overweight my whole life despite trying EVERYTHING to lose it! I would very much love having more people in my corner who understand what I'm going through and will be going through afterwards! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
