How is everyone doing on their preop diets

It's a roller coaster ride. Some days I'm ok others I want to kick someone. Today was a good day.

How about you?

Are you all ready for your surgery tomorrow??

I am scheduled April 2nd! Like some of you it feels like this has been a long journey and as it finally comes to an "end", it is also a start to another amazing journey!!

I only have to do 3 days of a full liquid pre-op diet so will be starting my Sunday! I will try to update you all sometime the 2nd or 3rd!

Good luck to everyone! We are ALL going to do amazing things and accomplish so much after this month!!

Cheers to a new healthy lighter version of all of us!

I feel like I can't stop grinning I am so excited A woman I know just came back after having been out for the survery and she already looks fabulous. Her clothes are hanging off of her and she is talking about how much energy she has. She has been fighting a lot of nausea but even she says she still is glad she did it. I can't believe that Friday is the day!!!!! So super smiley!

I know it's all so exciting isn't it?? Please pray for me. I'll more than likely be on my period during surgery which is bummer but I can deal with that....but my daughter just came down with strep throat so I'm praying I don't come down with it or you know they'll cancel surgery!

AHHHH!!!! I have been so nervous about that very thing! I have been washing my hands like crazy so I don't end up getting sick! I will def keep you in my thoughts, WrightRC!

Hey ladies. Everything went great yesterday. No gas pains but it feels like I did one too many crunches. Today I do the leak test and start on liquids! I ended up started my period just like I thought but it was AFTER surgery and not before. So praise God.

Hello, All! Things are going very well over here. Back home, very little discomfort, all in all, things are good! That said, I am already fighting head hunger. Sigh.... Good news, though, dropped weight already so I keep window shopping online and stay focused on that How are you all?

Hey Lia. I'm doing well also. I didn't lose my hunger either but I'm completely terrified of damaging my new stomach that I'm just sipping slowly on liquids. I'm doing well! Glad to hear you are as well. Cheers to a new life!

Just checking in. I'm doing great. No pain. My incisions are almost healed. Just moved to pureed food and everything is going great. I've had a couple of times I ate a little too fast and everything felt heavy for a few hours. My hunger is really not there as long as I am feeding my body every 3 hours and getting my fluids in.

That's great. I get to start on soft foods Friday and I can't wait. Been on all liquids for 3 weeks now including the 2 weeks pre op. I am over it! Lol. All my incisions have healed over except that main one where they took the stomach out of. It's been oozing for a few days.

Hey everyone, I'm new to the site . I had surgery on April 2nd. I'm in Fort Worth, TX. Would love to have some fellow members to go through this journey with. I started at 271 lbs and am now 241 so I am down 30 lbs since preop. I am getting a little impatient. I just want to be at my goal weight already. How much are you all eating at this point? How many calories a day? My goal is about 800 calories a day. But I am starting to get tired of eating the same stuff. I need some new food ideas. Also how much exercising is everyone getting in?
