I'm on day 9 of the liquid pre op. Everyday is a little easier than the day before. I can't have any solid food at all.....no yogurt or cream of wheat for me. I am just so sick of the shakes!!! I will be so glad when this is over! I think after surgery it will be way easier being on the liquids. Of course I could be wrong.

I will be there the following Monday the 18th!

I also started liquids this week. I've lost 8 lbs in 3 days. It's hard but not as bad as I thought it would be. I'll be so glad when this is all over and I'm on the road to recovery. Surgery date is the 18th.

I'm just a few days after you on the 18th.

Thanks for the tip. I start my liquid pre op tomorrow, and I'm pretty worried about it.

I've been following along here for a while now, and thought it was time to introduce myself. I am a Navy wife soon to be a retired Navy wife, my husband is saying goodbye to the Navy after 22 years, and starting a new career. I have 3 children. We live in Texas. I always swore I would never have weight loss surgery. After my 3rd child was born I lost over 100 pounds on my own, only to gain it back. Recently I lost 80 pounds. Then my Dad passed away which sent my over the edge, and I've gained about 50 of that back. And of course the countless times I've lost 30, 40 and 50 pounds. I'm turning 40 this year and have just decided that I'm tired of the weight battle. I just don't want to spend the next half of my life having dieting constantly being my sole thought. I got my cardio clearance yesterday. I am self pay and will be having my surgery on June 18th. I start my liquid diet Monday. I am not looking forward to that! I am nervous and excited all at the same time. I'm sure as it gets closer I'll be more nevous. LOL
