vsg30815 99 Posted May 3, 2012 Glad to know that we are all off to a good start! They just removed my drain and that was the most pain I have felt since! It didn't last long. Up walking, eating Jello and drinking crystal light! I go home shortly. Very impressed with the care I have received! Sent from my iPad using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BeautyVGSJourney 99 Posted May 4, 2012 Anyone can get a drain, it depends on the surgeon. Some see an added benefit on having a drain, some don't agree. It's more a surgeons preference. 1 vsg30815 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NikkiAlexander 2 Posted May 4, 2012 I start my liquid diet on the 9th any tips to help me get through this??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RawrrAshleex3 137 Posted May 4, 2012 ...Alcohol is a liquid right? just kidding!! Find stuff to keep busy and keep your mind off food. A big step (most of us atleast) is getting past our "mental" hunger. Read a book, go for a walk, see a movie, shop for makeup or indulge in a message, etc! 1 vsg30815 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peacelovenkarma 12 Posted May 4, 2012 Too funny Ashlee! I don't have a to do a liquid diet, but I am kinda trying to do one anyways..well a little bit. I have a requirement to lose 10% of my weight and I can't seem to keep that last 2 pounds off! I am drinking Water and Protein Shakes for the next few days. I go in on Monday for a check in and I need to be at that weight Monday at 2:30! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
