My surgery will be on August 29th. Original date was 22nd but it had to be delayed a week. I was required to do a 3 week liquid diet. This includes Protein Shakes, plain yogurt, quark, and Soups. All has to be puréed and low fat low carb. Because of the delay, I'm starting my 4th week today. For me, it hasn't been so bad because I can get fairly creative with soups. I've lost 14 ponds so far.

Its funny, but I swear this forum lives in my brain!! Haha!!

This particular thread is perfect & just what I needed. I'm on day 3 of my preop shakes only diet.

I need to focus & remember that I signed up for this life style change.

Passing the leak test is great news! Why u cant sleep? Is it too noisy? Or the pain is bothering u?

[nyorker 67]

I sleep on my stomach or side and cant do it due to pain..

Wow, webchickadee could be a motivational speaker! Have to admit, as I'm getting ready to embark on the liquid diet, I've been thinking, ahhhh, I'll give it a whirl and if it doesn't work, I'll just cheat. I'm going to print out her post and hang it on the fridge. Will get through it now!!
