  16. Well I started my liquids a day early and did great with it~~ Woke up this am feeling a little weird but okay. I jumped on the scale and I weighed 164 WOW!!! My first weigh with the doc I was 273~~ then at my last visit with the doc I was 271. Since my pre op diet two weeks ago and then starting liquids yesterday I'm down to 264!!! I'm very excited!!!! That 7 pounds in two weeks so far and I still have to day on liquids. My surgery is Friday!!! So nervous I could puke!!!! LOL
  17. Well the shakes powder that I bought was from Walmart and it's nasty. Now the shakes from the docs office I liked but I went the cheaper route.
  18. According to my doc it is counted as your water. The broth that I found is College Inn and it was beef flavor and I loved it. One other thing I've been drinking vanilla whey Protein shakes and they are nasty!! I'm not going to waste it so I've been experimenting and found that if I take 6 to 8 oz of Powerade zero to my one scoop it tastes pretty good.
