I had the choice of liquid or soild diet... Both 800 calories! I have jumped from liquid to solid... But I am fine because I lost the 8 pds my Dr required during my preop phase. Tomorrow is Clear liquids only... No food or drinks after midnight... Check in at 12 noon on Mon... Surgery at 2pm Lol I am excited/nervous... Thanks for wishing me luck!!!!! & Good luck to you!!!!!

The 12th is my date too! I am nervous/excited... I am trying not to focus on the fact that its just a few days away... I'm a nervous person and I don't want to work myself up. I just want to stay positive!!!! I hope and pray that we all have a complication-free surgery! Good Luck & God Bless to all!

I'm booked for surgery on Nov 12th... If you are/were a Fresno patient.... How was the care there??? Were you happy with the service??? Most importantly... Did you have complications??? Just a little nervous :/

Not only do you look great... But look happier and more confident! Awesome

Omg... I was soooo stressed the I woundn't lose the additional 8 pds that my Dr ordered... But I did!!!!! In fact I lost 10... My surgery is scheduled for Mon 12th Re: My 2 week Preop diet I started out on a liquid diet... Than added chicken breast to my diet- using the myfitnesspal app I made sure not to pass my 800 calorie limit... And it worked better!!! My Dr was ok with solids or liquids but the goal was high Protein and no more than 800 calories! Good Luck to all

Awesome ... God Bless... I get sleeved on Mon. NOV 12TH

Good Luck & God Bless

Been a good girl today... lol! But every food item on TV commercials I just want to go thru the screen and take a bite out! o_O

I somewhat cheated... Went to Sizzlers with my Hubby and ordered the Grilled chicken with steamed broccoli and drank Water. It was only 300 calories... The smartest choice on the menu. Since I am allowed 800 calories daily I made sure not to go over. I was ordered to a liquid diet 4 shakes, sugar free Jello or popsicles... So I guess that I did cheat :/ But today I will be on my best behavior O:-)< PROMISE!!! SURGERY IS SCHEDULED FOR NOV 12TH

Thanks for the words of encouragement!

Well I did that Colonic and I lost 1/2 pound :/ Oh and $90 bucks! I'm just going to stick to this liquid diet... Hope & Pray!!!!

What's the beano for???

I am frustrated :/ I need that scale to drop! My diet is 3-4 shakes per day... Isopure Creamy Vanilla. Its not too bad... My cheats are S/F popsicles and jello. Oh and I drink 1 gallon of water daily.

Talk to your Dr about gettin a colonics treatment... Cost about $100- They work!!!

My date is Nov 12th too... My liquid diet is going well- I just want to see the scale go down during my pre op. I am Soooooo excited to start this journey. I also have a headache and have even felt a little dizzy- but I am doing an exercise boot camp 45 mins every morning... Might not be able to continue throughout my 14 days because my energy level is getting lowered I am only drinking shakes- 800 calories per day... Not much fuel!

800 calories... Liquid shakes only. My go to cheats can be sugar free Jello or S/F popsicles. I am Sooo stressed because my husband and I both scheduled time off of work... And my heart is set on that date: Nov 12th I need these 8 pds to go!!! Over the last year I have lost 60 pds with diet and exercise... But of course there is always a stall... And this is mine at the worst time Ps: I am drinking a gallon of Water per day... No other beverages like juice or anything. I have scheduled a colonics for tomorrow (TMI) lol but I will do anything to lose this weight. I am nervous- it will be my first colonic treatment.

Today is day 3 on this liquid diet and I am so frustrated that my scale isn't going down... I know it's soon but my Dr told me if I don't lose 8 pds on this 2 week diet my surgery will be canceled... Talk about pressure :/

God willing we will all be fine O:-) Wishing everyone the best!!!

Oh Wow... Mountain View, CA! I was born there... 35 years ago and my kids where born at El Camino too... GREAT HOSPITAL! I live in the Central Valley now... I moved out here 11 years ago. Since I have Kaiser and will be going to Fresno.

We share the same date.... But I have to be on my best behavior because my Dr gave me an additional 8 pd weight loss by that date or it will be canceled... Needless to say I am stressed and sticking to my 800 calorie liquid diet! Where are you getting sleeved???

One word..... WOW!!!!!!!! You look wonderful

I am on day 2 of my 2-week liquid diet. I know that every facility and Dr is a little different... But I can only have Protein shakes, sugar free Jello or S/F Popsicles. I am using the 'myfitnesspal" app to count calories... I can only have 800 :/ I have a headache... Feel tired... And have low energy already Booooo! Lol Oh well... My surgery is scheduled for 11/12 pending I loss 8 more pounds on this!!! Wish me luck!!!!

I call my husband... "Hubby" It's just an endearing term<3 I've been with him for going on 19-yrs and it's just what I like to call him... No complains at my house

Thanks to everyone for the comments... I am excited to start my journey! Good Luck everyone and please be aware of cross-over addictions... I have shared the info with my family to keep a watchful eye on me... I have never had any addictions- expect for sweets especially chocolate Lol But I don't want to start any new ones either!!!!! Continued Success to All & God Bless! O:-)

I am booked to be sleeved on Nov 12th and I am Soooooo excited... However I am curious about cross-over addictions. See I have two very good friends that are post- op and they have jumped from over eating to other addictions :/ One started drinking and smoking... She is 1+ post-op The other is popping pain killers... She is 6 months out Concerned
