Surgery in 17 days

[CountryGirlatHeart 0]

My VSG surgery is in 17 days. I'll start the liquid diet in just three days for the two weeks prior to surgery... any suggestions or words of advice? I know these next two weeks are going to be hard so any advice or words of how you powered through will be so helpful.

Congrats! I can't wait to be where you are.

I'd take the time to review the diet plans you have from your surgeon. Figure out what "tastes good" to you... I stocked up on sugar-free popsicles, chicken, beef & vegetable broths, etc. If you can, get a sampler of Protein drink flavors and find one that will work for you.

Those are the things I wish I would have done going into my clear liquid diet phase. I thought I had plenty of time to get that done, but they ended up moving my surgery forward and I was caught off-guard.

Good luck!
