Too bad about your insurance, but it seems like lots of people go to Mexico for the surgery. I'm eating sugar free popsicles, too. Anything that will help.

My surgery is scheduled for January 3 in Mexico. I’m on day 5 of the liquid diet. My clinic had me do a 5 day colon cleanse. The natural herbs used made me feel full.

Tomorrow will be the test being around family and all the food.

Which Dr. are you using and what kind of colon cleanse? Today was a hard test but I passed , praying tomorrow will be easier .Merry Christmas

Jan 3rd for me. I’m on my 6th day of liquid diet. Allowed 4 shakes, 2 bars, 1 banana, and up to 3 servings of sugar free Jello. For Christmas Day, I was allowed to have 4 oz of turkey (no gravy) and 1oz of green Beans if I wanted it. I did eat it, but now my stomach is making a lot of crazy noises!
Thankfully I’m not hungry at all on the liquid diet. I don’t think I’ve lost a single pound on it though.

Thank you for your prayers. Blessed Herbs - ginger colon cleanse and Trinity Medical. Christmas wasn’t too bad. I was able to use putting my toddlers to sleep and missed all the action. I ended having to tell my sister on Christmas Eve because she kept pushing food. (She’s hosting all the activities at her house).

Whose your doctor? How did Christmas go?

hi niceross. It took a few days for my weight to start dropping but I noticed it in other ways first. How do your clothes feel on you? I moved up my drivers side seat closer to the steering wheel. Friends of mine did a double take when they saw me. Have you weighed yourself recently? I do think you're losing weight but I think it starts internally. I wish you a lot of luck and when you start to see it on the scale, you will be pleasantly surprised.

My surgery is also January 03 I’m getting my mind ready for the new Journey and outcome. I have been overweight all my life and it’s time for a change. I have been in my feeling of the liquid diet. And I don’t that I have lost any weight myself.

2018 is our year!! We can do it!

I'm looking forward to less joint pain and getting my face back, and lots of other things, of course.

For the people not hungry on the liquid diet, good for you! I am less hungry as days go by. I'm back to work tomorrow, and wish I could stay home, but at least it will be a less intense week than usual.
