momof6 35 Posted September 3, 2012 Started my pre op liquid diet today. Weighed and measured...now it is game time! 235.4 lbs now, surgery one week from today! 1 Uniqueladybug reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NurseTAB 65 Posted September 3, 2012 Surgery is 6 days away and I can't wait. I just have to do a 24 clear liquid diet and take a stool softner/laxative the day before. I am glad I don't have to do a liquid diet weeks before surgery I had to do that with my lap band and I wasn't able to do it without at least eating once a day. I don't think it realistic to only drink liquids for a month before surgery, for me anyway. I ordered some Protein Shakes and drinks online and they say they won't be at my home till Oct 1st I am hoping the shipping time is wrong cuz thats what I am relying on for Protein after surgery. Bah come on time go faster!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uniqueladybug 80 Posted September 3, 2012 Ok...we have ten people having surgery this week! Thoughts and prayers are with you all. Please keep us posted on how you are doing. I'm soooooo excited for you guys.... Jessica Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naturalgal518 3 Posted September 3, 2012 Hey jessica! Good luck on your operation - im also on the 5th. Its so close hey ! Especally that i have mine at 8 am !! Cant wait Thanks! I wish I knew the time, they will be calling me tomorrow to let me know. Hopefully its early. I guess the downside of not having to do the liquid preop diet is I have no idea what I am in store for tomorrow. I can eat sf Jello so hopefully that will help if I get cranky.

Judeabooo 17 Posted September 3, 2012 My starting weight is 331. I've been on my two week pre-op for 2 days at 325 now. I also started my Vitamins. Did anyone get crabby and a terrible burning in your stomach? All who have surgery this week I'm praying for y'all. Can't wait to hear how things went and if you have any tips for us;)~Judy 1 Uniqueladybug reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Judeabooo 17 Posted September 3, 2012 How do we deal with it? I just keep thinking its only 2 weeks then I won't be hungry. Hubby is like see I told you it would be this way! I told him it would be like this after surgery because I won't be hungry. On the bright side he promised to take the boys out for ice cream its the last day the dairy bar is opened and I told him I would stay home so I wouldn't be tempted! He decided to stay home too and sent the boys alone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He decided to stay home too and sent the boys alone One of my big goals before my surgery on Monday is to make a list of ALL the reasons I'm doing this surgery. I plan to keep a copy with me at all times so if/when I'm having a difficult time, I can remind myself why I did it. I keep thinking of more benefits every day! And if I ever get on here whining and complaining, feel free to tell me to stop and go get my list!! 2 rabrijumo and Uniqueladybug reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riverbuff2 15 Posted September 4, 2012 Starting weight 490lbs; current weight 412; goal weight for surgery 400lbs; ultimate goal weight 225lbs! Been on the liquid diet for 3 days. First day I had a severe headache and very shaky. I had to eat something small (broiled salmon). Second day, same thing but it was Labor Day and we had a ton over people over with all kinds of foods. Yeah, I was bad had 1 pc of chicken and a small spoonful of mac salad. Day 3 much better! Only shakes and broth and water! It's getting easier, Sugery is the 14th and like all of you, I can't wait and a bit nervous. Good luck to everyone having surgery this week, my prayers will be with you all. 1 Uniqueladybug reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe a long shot but who knows!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazeyem 32 Posted September 4, 2012 I made it through day 1 of my liquid diet only 6 more to go. I'm missing real food already! It's totally mind over matter though. I was at a party with junk food galore but I stayed strong. Hopefully this next week will be easier. I don't feel weak but I do miss having something solid in my tummy.
