I know your ready to get started! I was also. My advice would be start eating high Protein low carb but don't burn yourself out on liquids to soon. You will have plenty of time with that. Start walking and get plenty of Water. It wil be here before you know it.

Hi Aliasmith... I can relate. It took my insurance 3 months but Dr only has me on a 1 week liquid diet. I started today as my sleeve is next Wed. I feel a little confused as well. Not sure what about just overwhelmed I guess. Good luck girl!
