I started my liquid diet today.... The Protein Shakes are making me gag a little..not going to lie. I diluted them with Water which is making it a little easier to take in. It will be a long 2 weeks but it will totally be worth it!

I started today too!!! Felt great this morning, now I feel like Im counting down the minutes to lunch... lol... Luckily my surgeon ok'd Herbalife shakes which I like, so that makes it a little easier for me.

Good Luck! Here's to hoping the next two weeks fly by :)

My surgery is 3/3. I can't believe it is so close. I have been on my liquid diet for a week now and it's not as bad as I expected not really hungry.

Mine is March 10th. I am super excited! I have all the things I need. I have picked out the shakes I like, The only thing left to do is clean the house top to bottom and make my room relaxing since I will be recouperating for 2 weeks in it. I plan on getting some new candles to burn and just loving myself while I am healing. What a vacation...lol. Ill make the best of it.

@ I have Synthex-6 vanilla ice cream and also bought almond and cashew milk. i also have chocolate Premier Protein. I have also bought the unjury chicken Soup. I have tried Unjury chocolate and I like that as well. I also would recommend Chike. it is so good. Make sure you buy some PB2 powder to doll up your vanilla and you can also but the SF Torini. I have even covered the basis of Water. I have lemon flavored torini SF to mix in my Water. I love variety so as not to get bored quickly. i start my 2 week diet tomorrow, Today is food funeral.

@ marissa75 I would like to add that Vitamin Water zero is something I have stashed away as well. Like I said...Variety is key for me.

I'm 3 days into my pre-op diet and it's okay. I have found that I like to take my Protein Shakes blended with a little bit of ice

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
