Did you cheat on your liquid diet? Me, not a morsel so far! Wine counts as a clear liquid, right? Jk. Lol

How much weight have you lost on 30 days liquid?

9lbs. I have a horrible metabolism. I didn't cheat either.

I am on day 7 of my pre-op diet and it SUCKS! Sorry to be a downer, but it does. My doctor requires we do Bariatric Advantage shakes, 4 a day with 1cup of vegetables, raw and 1cup of raw fruit and broth. Anyway if the shakes are horrible tasting. It's just a lot of liquid. I'm not cheating except for a bite here and there but rather just not eating much, not drinking the shakes. I'm losing weight, but still this diet is giving me just another reason to look forward to surgery! My surgery is on Monday the 17th.

Day 5 and not hungry! Had a bad day yesterday and cheated. Over it now. Positive and forward!

I see so many people on 7 day, 10 day, even 30 day liquid diets before surgery! Out dr only requires a 3 day liquid diet before surgery. mind boggling when I see these other post. wow more power to you all!

Mcdoja - I see you have Dr. Peluso.... I hope to have my surgery with her at the end of July... her whole staff is great. I was wondering how long the liquid diet would be.. one week beats two. Best of luck!

[mcdoja 33]

Yeah Pittguy. Had surgery on Tuesday and feeling very well. The whole staff was awesome. If you have any ?'s, please don't hesitate to ask.

Mcdoja,

I received my presurgery packet and it looks like my lquid diet will be two weeks. I saw their paperwork had two options i am guessing the need my liver to shrink a good amount.

How was your hospital stay? St Margaret sent out a packet with pre surgery info but nothing about the actual stay. I hope all is going well.

My first date of pre-op diet is june 28th wish me luck
