This is only day one so I am doing my best. Hopefully once I'm off work it will get a tad better.

Well I had a Protein Shake for breakfast- one for lunch- 2 pieces of sugar free gum but by the time I got home from work I felt extremely sick. So I did have half a piece of grilled chicken breast and 1/2 cup of steamed broccoli. I'm trying not to beat myself up too bad. This is a Huge improvement to what I previously would have done!!! I also got some Water in but not nearly enough. Hoping tomorrow will be better:)

Minimi is right. The first week is tough. Feeling weak and just off in general. I'm just starting week two and things are much better. A bit more hungry, but feeling much better, normal I guess. I suppose it takes time for the body to adjust.

Part of my pre-op diet is sugar free Jello. It's been a lifesaver for me! End of day 8 of pre-op diet. Making meals for kids and family is the hardest thing for me.

Today was my only day on Clear Liquids for pre op - then a week following. I was good until now - I'm starving , but I'm going to sleep. I hope - 10 hours until I'm banded! PSYCHE!!!

I'm here at Morristown Medical Center, and ready to take my leap of faith to my new life. I'm feeling good, even being on clear liquids, I'm feeling good. I'm proud of myself for making this decision, and I'm finally doing something for me! To all you sabotage 'ers out there :you can't get me no more! Everyone going in today- good luck .. And smile at your surgeon

Follow your dr ordered pre-op diet. Everyone has a different diet. Could you bring something from home that follows your specific diet?

The biggest part of success is being prepared. As soon as you are not ahead of the game you will be faced with food choices that will not be the best for success. This is true during preop as much as it is through the whole journey.

My surgery is this Thursday.

I was not required by my Dr. to do a pre-op surgery but I did/doing one anyways...smh

Im nervous and HUNGRY..lol but I think I am hungry because I am use to eating entirely more than what I am eating at this moment. I know my stomach says its full, but my brain is not quite catching it.

I have been drinking a lot of Water too!!

Good Luck everyone!
