kasemcd 34 Posted June 14, 2017 Just looking for someone to talk to to help raise my spirits. This pre op liquid diet has me feeling pretty sad, but I know I can do it. I just have no one that relates to how I'm feeling- which is hungry! Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Navigating the Wilderness 824 Posted June 14, 2017 liquid diet is the absolute worst part of the whole WLS journey in my opinion, and it gets better, it really does. I had surgery in Florida, who is performing your surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Navigating the Wilderness 824 Posted June 14, 2017 Ok, I'm not familiar with that surgeon, I had one surgery with Dr. Simon in West Palm Beach and another with Jefferson Vaughan in Jupiter, both were good, Vaughan was exceptional. At any rate, like I said, the liquid diet is the worst, and it will get better! I was very unhappy while I was doing straight liquids and questioned the surgery constantly, but things progressed much better once I was allowed dense Protein.
