Hey ladies! Glad to hear everyone seems to be doing well. Today is Day 1 of my liquid pre-op diet. So far, so good! I'm guessing that this evening will be a little more difficult when I'm at home. I did weigh myself this morning....geeze. Seeing that # for sure solidified my decision on going forward with this and eliminating any second guessing that I've been doing in my head. I'm so ready for the next chapter!

I will likely discuss once I'm home, I just don't need her worrying beforehand. I'm hoping I'll feel awesome 😊😊

Honestly, Day 1 wasn't bad. Evening I did get a little hungry...but I made myself stay busy with my little one and trying to get stuff done around the house. I did weigh myself today and I'm down 5lbs since yesterday (I know it's probably just all Water weight), but still made me feel a little better this morning.

Today is also my birthday, so I'm going to indulge and have a glass of wine tonight.

I had my birthday while on liquid diet too. We went to Rita's so I could get a sugar free Italian ice.

Happy belated birthday!! This week has been so crazy with work and trying to prep for next week. I'm loving the weight loss as well! Hoping it will continue. I'm so shocked that my cravings ended so quickly. There was a birthday party at work today and I was completely fine about not eating. Even the costco cake which I love, nothing. I'm so thankful! Only a few more days and I'll be in Mexico! 😊

Thank you! Today has been a little tough for me. I'm just feeling bleh, like I'm stuck in a funk. I'm assuming it's just a mix of hormones, nerves and lack of food =/

😔. I'm super excited right now. But I'm sure Suu/Mon when I'm there I'll be a bundle of nerves.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
