Still Waiting for Surgery Date
Sprinkles1 replied to Neon Star's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
What got them to respond?! Congrats! Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app -
So, I'm just curious.... how much have/did you lose on your pre-op liquid diet? I'm on day 6 and have lost 8lbs already. It's kinda crazy. Definitely keeps me motivated to continue this 4 week diet! Sometimes it's easy and sometimes it's hard... only drinking 4 protein shakes a day plus raw veggies. That's all I'm allowed to have.

Mine is 4/23! Only a couple of days ahead of you!! I'm currently on a 4 week liquid diet... and ready for it to be over. Do you feel prepared?? I haven't gotten any vitamins or protein shakes that I'll need for after my surgery... I'm such a procrastinator.. -
2-Week Pre-op diet starts tomorrow
Sprinkles1 replied to Islandgyrl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm on day 9 of a 30 day liquid diet. Only protein shakes (4) & raw veggies. Nothing else. I've been a little moody, and hungry but doing better than expected. Just keep thinking about your surgery and your goals! That's what I'm doing! Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app -
I can't wait for that! I'm waiting to take any more trips until I lose weight... my last one I was fat shamed and never want that to happen again. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Still Waiting for Surgery Date
Sprinkles1 replied to Neon Star's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh man, that's terrible... no, I was able to schedule as soon as I got my approval. That's pretty poor staffing though... do you have a patients portal through the hospital? I can always go on that and email my surgeon's staff when I have questions or concerns. -
Hey! I'm on day 5 of a 4 week liquid diet! It SUCKS. It does get better though. 6lbs down since I started, so that's a little motivational. Just be glad yours is 2weeks... [emoji31] Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

4/23! Surgery buddy?!
Sprinkles1 replied to Sprinkles1's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm a little nervous too... I'm nervous about loose skin. I'm nervous about failing. I'm nervous about who I'm going to be in the future. We just gotta stay strong! Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app -
If the was some magic pill or routine, I'm sure we'd all be doing it. Just mentally prepare yourself! Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
