My date is may 13. Going to texas. Really want this to be done already. What are you all focusing on 6 weeks out. I am trying to focus on drinking Water. starting Protein. eating slower. So far knowing I am having the surgery is causing me to eat more not less.

Where in Texas? I'm in Austin. My surgery is also about 5 or 6 weeks out, its scheduled for May 17th but I'm trying to reschedule for the 10th.

I am working on drinking water throughout the day, testing recipes for the liquid phase, and I'm making sure to take a good amount of Vitamins so that all my blood levels are good going into surgery in case they drop in the first few weeks due to not getting enough nutrition in while I'm learning a new way of eating. I also want to make sure I am really hydrated in case I fall down on getting enough water the first few weeks too.

I'm scheduled for May 17 in Cedar Park, TX! Who is your surgeon?

Hello everyone:

I had my surgery on May 9th. I have yet to tell my family. My husband knows, my best friend knows, a lady who had the surgery knows and my one of my cousins knows that I trust not to say anything knows. Other than that I have yet to tell anyone else in my family because when I first mentioned it to my parents they immediately started to criticize and tell me that would be the biggest mistake of my life. I also did not want to have to explain myself.

I have lost some weight since the 9th but it has been slow which is fine. I probably won't see my family until the holiday which is far away.

I have my ups and downs with my relationship with my stomach and trying to work on my relationship with food. I hope with time the ups will far outnumber my downs.

@@Suga Renique Reborn it's wait 30 minutes after drinking before eating , don't take more than 30 minutes to eat , and wait 30 minutes after you eat to drink.
