Wow, you've lost 80 pounds in 4 months? That gives me the encouragement that I needed while on day 3 of my 14 day liquid diet!!! You go girl!!!:thumbup:

Thanks bambam, appreciate the support and encouragement!! I'm now on day 3 and I'm happy to say that my family is still alive and I haven't gnawed my own arm off yet!! I'm just hoping that after today or tomorrow, that I'll have more energy and not be as grumpy!!

That's exactly my problem!!! Although I have a tremendous sweet tooth, I'd kill for something savory!!!! I'm going to try chicken broth for dinner and HOPE that it will do the trick for me!!! Good luck to you...hang in there!!!!:scared2:

I am right there with you!!! I am on day 2 of my 2 week pre-op liquid diet and I'm dying!!! I feel like my stomach is about to start eating itself!! I'm allowed 4-5 protein shakes, all the sugar free jello, pudding and popsicles I want and water. I have NO energy, I'm starving, I'm having terrible headaches and I'm grumpy!!!!! I'm hoping and praying that it gets better as I go along. Good luck to you!!

I'm a little afraid of the pre-op diet, myself. My surgery is scheduled for May 10, which means that I start my pre-op diet on April 26. I'm supposed to have 4-5 protein shakes per day and that's all. Yuck!!! I'm already dreading it!! But I read someone's post that said they had to do it for 60 days, so I feel very fortunate.:frown:

Hi, I'm 37 years old, married, mother of 3 beautiful girls and have been overweight my entire life. I remember being in kindergarten and realizing then, that I was bigger then everyone else. I attended my first Weight Watchers meeting at the age of 10 and have been fighting this battle ever since. I have completed my pre-op requirements and have been scheduled for surgery on May 10th. I'm excited, scared, but most of all ready!!! I guess I'm more afraid that I will fail at this attempt to lose weight as well as every other time I've tried. I have read over many posts and have been both educated and encouraged as well as, a little afraid of what all of you have written. But I feel that the more information I have, the more equipped I'll be for my journey. I look forward to reading more of your posts and seeing the successes, as well as posting my own successes.

Good luck to you, I'm sure you will do great!!! Keep me posted on how you're doing!!
