sjrn16 16 Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) Thanks this is a great idea we can keep each other going thru this journey. My name is Sandy I live in the Chicago area. I am 53 years old and a nurse. I am 5'5" and my HW was 267 CW now at 236. My surgery is not until 3:45 pm on Monday so it will be a long day that I am so anxious to get done with so I can begin my new life.

arenea 61 Posted January 30, 2016 Are you on clear diet now? I just drank my broth and ughh, i think im gonna be a Jello eater for the next couple of days...lolNo my doctor didn't make me do clear liquid, just high Protein low carb. They said they know we will have to do the clear liquid afterwards so they didn't want me to before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
