Day 4 of pre op diet. It actually has gotten a lot easier!! The first day was the hardest. Going from eating anything I wanted to just shakes and vegetables was hard! But no cheating here! Only 10 more to go!! Hows everyone else doing??

Started my liquid diet yesterday. I agree that it was harder than today. Luckily I only have a one-week diet. I think I'd eat my leg off otherwise! Went to my surgeon's pre-op today, hospital pre-op tomorrow and the big day is next Wednesday! Cannot wait! Woo hoo, we're all going to do awesome!

My day one starts today!!! Not looking forward to it but if it gets me one step closer to my RNY on Jan 16th, then I'll do just about anything.

My surgery is jan. 16th too....I.have a one week pre-op which I thought was weird...you well do great..one day closer to your big day!!!!!

One day at a time is all you can do...it will definitely pay off in the long run. What type of Protein are you all using?

The center that is doing my surgery provided us with the protein mix that is mixed with Water. They had many flavors which I picked strawberry. It's not too bad. I had 1 for Breakfast, then 1 for lunch. I had 4 oz of fish & 1/2 cup of veggies. I must have at least 64 oz of liquid which I don't have problem with, I drink lots of water anyway. I hope day 2 goes better.

Well Completed Day 2 of 14 of preip liquid diet and I would have to say it was harder than day 1 but mostly because of the severe headache all day. One day at a time! Starting Day 3.

Good Luck With the challenges of today Surgery Buddies!
