Sharona 3 Posted May 6, 2013 One week to go to surgery :-), first week of liquid diet done! (not easy). Heading to Cleveland Clinic on 5/14 and so ready to begin my new life. Cleveland Clinic has been phenomenal and I feel I am in good hands. I was excited to see this app available for my tablet and find others who are taking this life changing journey. Family has been very supportive and shares in the excitement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deaddemmama 474 Posted May 14, 2013 Good for you! I'm two weeks post surgery and doing great! I lost 20 lbs on liquids presurgery and another 11 so far. Its really rewarding so far...but hard to switch to just eating untilp full and not worrying about calories. I found great Protein Shots to drink so I'm not constantly sipping shakes.That's just what works for me. pureed food is going great...I'm tolerating everything really well.Hope your surgery and recovery goes great.

Sharona 3 Posted May 15, 2013 Well I did it and feeling pretty good this morning, just got my first sip of Water. The toughest part was taking my first walk last night, I sat in the chair for about an hour, the worst was getting back into bed, I am only 5 ft tall lol Surgery date May 14th 2013 1 karlam29 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
