Oh thank goodness! Just the idea of the procedure scares me. I was more nervous about this than the actual surgery. Crazy, I know! Lol.

For those of you on a liquid diet I have a question. How many calories are you getting in a day? I started my liquid diet on the 30th and have only been getting in around 400 calories a day is this normal or do I need to get in more calories. If I need more calories can anyone give me pointers on how to get more in please.
