My doc described as anything that can be mashed with a fork - beans are good.

I noticed that my "full" feeling also feels like a hunger pain. Anyone else notice that?

where did you find your avatars? theyre so cute!

Is hot and sour soup strained clear enough for the pre op diet? the clear liquid. Ive seen many say it is but wanted to see what some others think.

I just wanted to let you know that Im on my 4th day and it has not been bad at all. I keep thinking I must be doing something wrong but Im not! I have been bracing myself for the last 3 days waiting for the horrible headaches and maybe a news truck outside for threatening my family. But NO! Check out this video below- this is how I invisioned myself. HaHa Her name is even Cindy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YfvBbxE1vU Two things I can attribute that to. 1) I prepared for this by the month before pre-op I had a schedule of things that I would wien myself of and how slowly. Things like my beloved wine at night, some of my favorite foods like cheese. Also drinking before eating and after- started not drinking during and then as the weeks went by I would at time before and after that I would not drink with my meal. Also, i had some great friends praying for me that I would be nice to my family. Since I started the liquid diet - when my family would eat I would leave the house or go in my room a read a good book. when food would enter my mind I would totally shut it out and say no! Im not going to think about that! and it seems to work. Hope this helps I know I appreciate when others give tips. Cindy

I believe thats the daily requirement of water. Good luck and maybe double check on that amount of water

Wow you look amazing! Are you planning on having plastic surgery? Doesnt look like you need it....

I went back and forth about whether to tell also, finally I decided that I know some will judge me for this but they're probably already judging me for being overweight so - let the judging begin! but its a very personal decision.
