Day 1 liquids

[mommyof3sweetboys 67]

I feel like today is the first day of the rest of my new life! That great feeling overshadows anything negative about all liquids (so far. )

I took all my measurements last night and took time to gather all my necessities for work this week so I feel I'm prepared. Surgery is March 10th, barring any insurance issues. Good luck to all! Who else is a March 10 buddy?

Good luck to you. This is a rough phase but seems like you have the right attitude!

Congratulations! I'm on day 6 of pre-op and doing so much better than day 1. I'm having my surgery 3/5 so I'm pretty close to you. It sounds like you have a great attitude...I'm sad to say I was super cranky on day 1!

Congratulations!! Love to see how positive and upbeat you are about it! You're going to do a great job

I may be cranky after while when my family is chowing down on spaghetti. I purposefully chose things for supper this week that aren't my favorites, lol! Good luck to you on the 5th!!!

I'm March 10 too...and on lovely day one of liquids. I'm pretty excited, but almost more scared of these two weeks than the actual surgery. This weekend, I could not stop stuffing food in my mouth. I felt so bad about it, but just couldn't stop. I'm going to give the two week liquids my all, though...to give myself the best chance of a safe surgery. It's just barely lunchtime on the first day, though, and I already have a headache and feel weak. Yikes! Tomorrow will be better, right? Ok, one day at a time.

You have a great attitude! Your system will be primed and ready for a smooth procedure and your new life. Very exciting!

I didn't know my surgery date until after dinner last night! I got an email from my surgeon saying they could schedule me on March 10th if i can start liquid diet today! Well, of course i am ready to get this process going, so I told them definitely, I am ready....I am also away for a work related trip, so I am at a conference today that had Breakfast, mid morning snack, lunch and afternoon snack all provided...I am sipping my Water and Protein shake....
