sorry this happened to you bud :(

doctors frequently say to lose "X" amount of weight

he reason they want a weight loss is it helps shrink the liver, so its easier for them to perform their "magic"

another reason docs do this is they want to make sure you are totally committed to follow a "health plan" of proper eating for the rest of your healthier, happier, life

show him you can follow the rules and be successful............. :rolleyes:

but more importantly - follow the rules "for yourself"

we all want/wanted this surgery very bad

gotta go on the liquid diet again immediately if not sooner :(

easier said than done, but i wouldn't even eat thanksgiving dinner as planned

even if you don't eat as much as normal, you lose a day towards your weight loss :huh:

your date has been definitely resceduled for the end of december??

I can see B) the determination in your beautiful eys!!!

gotta commit yourself

you can do this

i know you'll be one of the many, many other successful sleevers ;)

take care

good luck

kathy

You can do it, I am on a liquid diet and only had 3 days to lose 10lbs. I was a so nervous. Only because if I could lose 10lbs. in such a short amount of time why would I need surgery? Anyway, I started on 11/22/13 and weighted in on 11/26/13, to my surprise I lost -12lbs. I have a renew outlook on the liquid diet. Drink a lot of Water. You know it's working when your going to the bathroom 20 times a day. Good luck, know you can do and you will!

      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.
