My surgery is scheduled for Sept 17th in TJ Mexico. I have a 3 week liquid diet and I am on day 5. I am so hungry. I have only lost 1lb and that makes me sad. Sometimes I just feel like it is hopeless to lose weight. I will not cheat.

Hello all, I just finished my pre-op testing and I am set for sept 16th. I have never had surgery or even been in the hospital, so I am a bit scared, but super excited to take this step. I am starting my 2 week liquid diet on Monday. Suggestions?

Sabrina - don't worry you can do this!!!!! Make sure you get in Protein every 4 hours MAX. In between eat Jello, have a glass of skim milk. just keep track of protein and calories. i am 8 days in on the full liquid diet and i am eating around 800 calories and 70-80 grams protein. Just an aside, I went to my favorite Chinese restaurant. I have always been crazy for sizzling rice Soup. I ask for 2large containers of broth only. The broth is incredible flavorful. Since it is preop and volume doesn't matter I can have 2cups for 50 calories, . You can do the same thing with any restaurant that serves pho -the beef broth that is the foundation of pho is made with veggies, beef, and marrow. Yum yum...

My surgery is this Thursday Sept. 5th. I have mixed feelings. I am nervous & excited. My husband had the gastric- bypass he is doing great. He is down 40 pounds in 2 months. I was suppose to get the same surgery but changed to a sleeve. I hope I made the right decision. I am having my surgery on Long Island in New York.

Starting my two week pre op diet officially on Tuesday, surgery is Sept. 17th. I'm feeling a bit nervous about this wondering if I'll have the energy to work. I'm on my feet all day running back and forth. I'm easing into it by starting today to see how I do. Getting nervous but very excited to start this new chapter of my life! Congrats to everyone who is having surgery this week! Hoping for quick easy surgery and recovery for all!
