because I am super excited that I started my liquid diet today. I went yesterday and had my EGD and Bravo put in.. but today I woke up happy and excited that I was starting my liquid diet. For me I know that it's the start of the two weeks before surgery.. I am counting down the days baby.. I am soo stoked. The diet I don't think is going to be hard for me because I spent sometime when I was younger not eating at all.. I think when I was in high school I went four months without eating anything.. so this two weeks is going to be a piece of cake..

To all others that started their liquid diets today I wish you all luck.. and know that our day to be on the losers bench is coming soon!! :D

Yes! This is the attitude you need to set your self for success. I was so pumped to get going and start my new life that I felt nothing was going to get in my way. I've kept that feeling and attitude and it's been a lifesaver.

Good luck!

YAY YOU!!!! You are going to do great.

I was supposed to have my surgery in mid April but my doctor dropped the ball in submitting my papers so I was pushed back to May 16. I started my pre-op diet on my original surgery date because I was SO freaking anxious to get to a healthy weight.

You can do it!!

Spoke to my surgeon's office today and my appointment with him has been set for Sept 10. The surgery has also been set for Oct 7. I am really getting anxious and excited about it. Every time I talk about I smile and imagine myself skinny and leading a healthy life with my husband.

I started my pre-op yesterday...it's not exactly all liquid... but it is low carb/fat liver shrinking. I'm so excited as well. Great approach to a situation that is going to change our lives!!! Yay!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
