    Try sodium free broths and the protein shakes. I lost 15 lbs in 2 weeks.

    I was supposed to be in liquids only. Clear, sodium free liquids. I definitely had a pickle every day after the first 5 days of my 2 week diet and the dr said my liver was tiny. But I needed to chew something because I was gonna lose it. It was a pickle or something worse so I opted for he pickle.

    Get the sodium free broth packets. They are a life saver. They breakup the protein shakes with flavor but don't make you gain/retain weight/water because here isn't any salt. They come in chicken and beef and they're in the soup isle. They're less than $2 per box but you do need 2 packets because of the lack of salt.

    I find it hurts less if he beverages are like warm. Even a little cool bothers me. We can be journey buds if you'd like! I was done Wednesday at 2pm! They were so backed up I didn't get to a room til 9pm!

    So far I've been getting 40oz water in, I know it's not the total I need but I'm doing the best I can. Also I've been doing 3-4 10 minute walks around me neighborhood so I'm getting the walking in. Protein however, still a struggle.

    My surgery is tomorrow and I just want to hear some success stories from your first month or 2 after surgery. I keep reading about people freaking out because the weight isn't falling off, so I want to hear stories from people who were content and happy with what and how they lost weight right after surgery. Thanks!

    I've been focusing on water before protein. My stomach can only handle so much but like you've all said, water first. And walking too! Thank you all again. You've been such a huge support throughout my journey!

    Thank you all so much for sharing your stories! I'm even more motivated for tomorrow now!

    But with all of your wisdom and kind words, I did! My surgery is tomorrow morning! I find out after 4pm the exact time but who cares! I made it! And I lost 15 lbs which I feel good about since I started at 215. Thank you all again so much for your encouragement! I hope I can encourage those of you who still have some time to go! Thanks again!

    I didn't get nervous til today because surgery is tomorrow but I also know that whatever will happen will happen regardless of the amount of time I waste worrying so, I let it go. My doctor is awesome, as I'm sure yours is too, so relax and get ready for a healthier you!
