Hello TwoScoops,

I started my liquid diet on Sept 18th. protien shakes, jello,water and soup broth. I have to do this for 2 weeks before the surgery. And so far within the 9 days I have lost 8lbs and I feel good. I'm actually looking forward to getting the surgery done and over with. I was also scared and not knowing what to expect. Now just ready. Good luck on your surgery. And keep in touch and let me know your progress.

Thanks for the advice. It's been a big help. I went today to get the lab workup for the surgery. And all the surgerical information. I will be going to the store this weekend to stack up on protein shakes, popsicles and jello, and snapple drinks. I think my biggest hurdle may be trying to get through the 2week liquid diet before the surgery. I'm sure the outcome will be worth it. Thanks again for the advice and continual sucess to you.

I'm excited yet nervous about the surgery. I keep seeing post where people mention getting their 1st fill. What is that and how soon after surgery do you get? What were some of your biggest struggles after the surgery?

Hi, I saw your before and after pictures. You look great and you definitely encouraged me. I will have surgery Sept.1st and hope to post pics. Good luck on your continual progress.

Hello, Im new to the site and just wanted any helpful information. I'm scheduled for surgery on Sept 1st and so full of questions.
