I'm getting RNY tomorrow also! Just drank my "cleanser". I check in at 6:00. So nervous but excited!

My surgery is scheduled for 7:10 tomorrow morning. Just took the FDA approved Drano and will stay close to the hotel room tonight.

Yeah!!! See you there in 36 hrs!

Unjury unflavored & chicken Soup don't appear to have sweeteners but the other flavors do. The brand I use has sucralose so that's no help to you but hopefully others have products to share that will work for you.

Sore, loving morphine but really doing great so far. So happy to be on the flip side!!!!!

I'm on day 4 of 14. I could seriously chew my arm off. But... I have lost 6 pounds. I know it's all Water, but I don't really care. I think it is all to shrink your liver. Right?

Yes, I had a few food funerals. I made it, I'm 9 days away from surgery. Pre-op isn't that bad, just like any other diet that I have done time and time again, except this one will certainly end differently! Best of luck on the 20th~

I know! I'm a week out but having so many going in tomorrow has mr stoked! It's absolutely goofy . Good luck to all of you and please drop us a line when you can and let us know you're okay!!!!

I have 11 days till my surgery I'm ready to do it so far on pre op diet I've lost 22 lbs have my appointment with surgeon and pre register at hospital and labs all tomorrow. It's funny at my class Saturday it was on Mindful Eating so the Psy brought in fruit for everyone to eat to make you think about all the streps that had to go through to get it there the growing picking shipping and pre to eat then she had someone bless the food and had everyone smell it the take a bit and think about it was very interesting how some people smelt the camp lope as a perfume fragrant and how everyone compared even the portions they got 7 post op 3 pre op patients that pre op said the felt they got to much as posed to post op and 1 post op thought she didn't get enough compared to other post op and how I felt watching everyone else eat cause I'm on only shakes if it bothered me seeing others eat she had told me this and asked if I wanted to leave because of this exercise I told her no she even went as far as bring in special dishes that belong to her Grandmother that she using on special occasions it was a very interesting exercise. Then this Thursday we have a cooking class that the chief prepares a meal I going to I had thought it was to be my lat meal but they moved my surgery from 21 to the 14 and if I didn't want to attend cause it was a dinner I told her this was something we had to get used to because of social and family function you are going to be put in these situations and I wasn't going to avoid them just cause I could not EAT its social not just food or eating for being with friends

Oh,and pre-op BLOWS!!!! This is HARD!!!!

Premier Protein shakes are delish

I had my pre surgery psych evaluation today and got the green light from the doctor! I am so excited that this step is over. No more tests , just two more pre op appointments with the weight management/surgery team and I will be given my surgery date on March 27th! Hopefully I will start my new life by the end of April! Now I just have to learn as much as I can and WAIT!

On the last leg of the beginning of my new life! I start my pre-op tomorrow. 2 shakes, 1 snack (high protein), and 1 very small high Protein meal with small serving of cooked vege. I almost want to go liquid all the way to maximize my weightloss. I am so ready!!!

It will go super fast! This is the 3rd time my date has changed since October, due to insurance issue, and then a herniated disc in my back. I am now on the 2 week count down and nothing is stopping me!
