July 7 and I cannot wait. I am so excited. I am on full liquid as of yesterday but just realized I didn't need to start it until tomorrow. Doh! I have been doing a modified for the last two weeks...two shakes, yogurt snack and high Protein meal.

Had a last weigh in with the nut today and am so happy I am down a total of 30lbs from my highest weight and I am hoping for another 7lbs before surgery date.

Ok, be honest....has anyone cheated even a little on the pre-op? It is day 5 and I even had a great day......BUT, I got home and next thing you know, I had 2 potato chips with dip and a meatball! I am annoyed with myself. I have 5 more days to go and I KNOW 4th of July will be hard. Sigh.

I'm scheduled for July 13th. Just started the 2 week liquid diet. I can have protien shakes and pureed Soup with protien powder added. I don't really like canned or box Soups so I'm thinking of making homemade vegetable soup and sticking it in the Ninja.

Has anyone else made homemade soup for their liquid diet? Any good ideas?

I did really good on day 1and 2 but i have to admit I cheated.... I am so disappointed in my self I want to cry. I will try really hard tomorrow. I have to NOT cook for husband until I'm done with this liquid diet. Plus, I'm not used to having headaches. I ate a piece of a plain baked chicken breast and the headache instantly went away.

Don't beat your self up, it happens. I have 4 days left and I've stuffed up a couple of times just my habit. When making food for my siblings and I taste it to make sure it's cooked enough, and then I realise 'oh shit'. Can't really do much after you've swallowed it. As long as your making the effort and don't just ride the whole day off from a little slip up you'll be fine I reckon. What date if your surgery??

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
