How cool! liquids for 7 days? I meet with my dr on the 6th... I wonder how long my pre op diet will be. It seems like everything is happening so fast! I'm getting nervous too!! We should keep in touch to see how everything goes! I wish you the best!

I just spent a long time replying to your message and I erased it some how.. So I will try again tomorrow:) lol

@@tiffanymarie6997 I start my liquid diet tomorrow as well. I had a weird dream last night about it and I'm starting to panic a little. The only "plan" I have is to take it one day at a time so I've packed my schedule for the next 2 weeks and hope being so busy will help the days go by a little smoother.

I am day 6 of my 14 day liquid diet and am taking it one day at a time lol I packed my schedule at work so I stay busy and it does help a lot. I find that I struggle more while at home so I am working every day until surgery (even the morning of my surgery lol)

I am scheduled for surgery at 11:20am and am supposed to arrive around 9:20... I usually start my shift at 5am but I think I will come in around 4am and leave around 9:15 or so. I really just want to tie up some stuff around the office before I am off for a couple weeks. Hoping to be back in a week but I am planning for the worst case scenario of being off longer. Also, I work at the hospital so... It'll take me like 2 minutes to walk to surgery lol

I'm 4/18 also! My surgeon doesn't require any specific diet prior to surgery except Clear liquids 24 hours beforeZ. Encourages some weight loss prior to surgery but mainly do not any weight gain prior to surgery. Thinking about dieting starting tomorrow anyway. Getting super nervous and excited!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
