Today is the day!
browneyez42 replied to browneyez42's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello everyone. Surgery was a success! Minimal discomfort and I've been up walking. Thanks for the prayers -
You're doing great. After two weeks of liquids, I lost seven pounds. My nutritionist said its also to prepare me for post op. Surgery is tomorrow and my liver should be really small as I was 100% faithful. You got this!

I did 14 days of liquids prior to my one day of clear liquids

The liquid diet is a mental challenge. Im on my one day of clear liquids and I have not been hungry. I keep reminding myself that tomorrow is the beginning of my new journey. My family stopped by with chicken, sweets and everything else. It didn't bother me at all...I sat with them and drank my Protein20. My surgery is at 8:00 am tomorrow morning. Hang in there, its almost over.

Not losing weight on pre op liquid diet
browneyez42 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm on day 8 of my pre op liquid diet and have followed it correctly. I've only lost 4.5 pounds. I've read where people lose 15-20 pounds. Should I be concerned? -
We've all been there before with the "last supper"!!! You've come this far now and that's a major accomplishment. All of us are here to support you and await to see you on the "other side" ( post op).

We're almost there. Today was the first time I struggled. I decided to grab a bottle of water and took a nice walk. I felt better afterwards. Good luck on Wednesday -

Any April surgery buddies
browneyez42 replied to Relle2190's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I definitely understand. My surgery is on the 25th and I'm on Day 10 of my pre-op diet. I have been faced with temptation almost every one of these past 10 days...chocolate/cookies/cake/doughnuts in the office; smelling McDonald's french fries, etc. I have been strong by focusing my attention on the outcome. I keep saying to myself "I'm almost there!" So far, it's worked for me. Wishing you the very best. -

browneyez42 replied to angjade2's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hey surgery twin! Yes, this weekend is my time to get my house "in order". I need to pick up my clear liquids for Tuesday and Thursday/Friday. I was concerned that I haven't lost a lot during my pre-op diet, but I've been reassured I'm on the right track! See you on the loser's bench -

browneyez42 replied to angjade2's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Exactly....focus on more positive things and everything will work out. My surgery is only five days away. I'm anxious and excited. I'm doing this so that I can be around for my grand-daughter. It's because of her that I made this decision...carrying her one day had me breathing hard, my legs and back were hurting. I want to be healthy for her! -

I think its natural to be nervous. The only person who knows if you're making the right decision is YOU! You can do this and all of us will support you. Just think of the outcome [emoji4]
