  1. I'm using BetterMD protien shakes I had to order it though my Dr. It don't taste to bad 5 shakes a day and there is a fiber drink or make it into jello 1 time at night. I'm on day 4 its getting easier.
  2. Wow Melissa I guess I didn't know people had to go 30 days. I thought 2 weeks was long. I'm sorry. I wish you luck! I did hear that after the 4 day it gets easier. I know it will be worth it in the long run. My surgery is the 27th can't wait!!! Good luck to you!!
  3. So I started my pre-op diet this morning. I'm starving I hope I can get though this for 2 weeks. Why is it some people don't have to do a 2 week diet? My niece only had 1 day of pre-op diet don't understand why some dr's requires 1day and some do 2 weeks. I know I have to srink my liver but really does it really take 2 weeks to do it?
  4. That is good to hear. I have to do the BetterMD my dr requires it. I orderd it today I just want to be ready. Had a lot of running around today with all the paper work for work now hope I don't have any trouble with that. I know my boss will try to deny my time off work. But I'm going to go over head if she does.
  5. Good Luck to you also!!!

  7. Thank you Lori... I do remember reading abot that kit now. I did buy some of that premier protien drink today and tryed it. Its not bad I tried it today. Thank you again.
  8. Thanks Lori for the info!! I did hear that the faster you get up and walk the better you feel. So on the pre op diet you can have SF popsicles and SF Jello? What are the best shakes to buy? Your doing really well on your weight loss!!!! I hope I do that good. Thanks again!! If you think of anything else I should know please let me know. Belinda
