So did anyone cheat on there pre-op liquid diet ?? I start on June 10 surgery June 21 I'm excited but I'm nervous about doing the liquids

I Have to do the liquid diet for 14 days.. I am on day 9 and have lost 14 pounds so far... I have tasted a piece or two of chicken breast that was grilled... But that was it.. It took until day eight for it to get easy... But hang in there it will be okay

So just so I can get more ideas.. What kind of Proteins are you all drinking?? I start mine on Friday!!!

I am drinking the unjury, lean shakes from GNC, medislim I get those from my primary care doctor... And the key is to drink lots of Water I drink about 80 ounces of Water in between shakes and throughout the day

ThAnks!!! Colcol

Great job!!

Just got back from my PAT and the technicians and nurses said that everything was perfect and beautiful. Signed a couple of papers they took some blood, did an EKG, and chest x-ray. And I love that I lost 14 pounds in nine days... Five more days to go so hopefully I can reach my 20 20 pound personal goal my surgeon only wanted me to lose 10... June 11 I cannot wait to see you

Yeah I'm going on my lunch break and taking an extra hr.. So hopefully it's not longer... Lol

Hopefully none.. Lol...my insurance has been picking up the tab... I've only had to pay for co-payments of $15 and my psych evaluation for $225... So they better keep shelling out the dough.. Lol

I had my first appointment on April 8.. I had to make all of my clearance appointment.. The surgeons office gave me a list... And I am getting sleeve on June 11.. I finished all of my appointments on May 29.. And I scheduled my surgery on May 9.. I had to meet with three times to go over everything

Yeah I guess That's Why they want me to fast before going for two hours.. But at least in those two hours I can have Water

Yeah I have mine tomorrow And she said 1.5-2 hrs plus I can only have Water two hr prior my sleeve date is june 11

Good Luck to everybody!!!

I have my pre- admission testing tomorrow.. Surgery in six days... Got to stay focused... The liquid diet is easy. Now... Took eight days for it to get easy... Let's get this show on the road

My song would be Alycia Keys- Brand New Me

Brand New Me"

It's been a while I'm not who I was before

You look surprised Your words don't burn me anymore

Been meanin' to tell ya But I guess it's clear to see

Don't be mad It's just a brand new kinda me

Can't be bad I found a brand new kinda free

Careful with your ego

He's the one that we should blame

Had to grab my heart back God knows something had to change

I thought that you'd be happy I found the one thing I need

Why you mad? It's just a brand new kinda me

"Never bad I found a brand new kinda free. Ooh..."

****** It took a long' date=' long road to get here

It took a brave, brave girl to try

It took one too many excuses, one too many lies

Don't be surprised, don't be surprised********

If I talk a little louder, If I speak up when you're wrong

If I walk a little taller I've been under you too long

If you notice that I'm different, Don't take it personally

Don't be mad It's just a brand new kinda me

"That ain't bad I found a brand new kinda free."

Ooh, it took a long, long road to get here

It took a brave, brave girl to try

I've taken one too many excuses, one too many lies

Don't be surprised, oh, said, you look surprised

Hey, if you were a friend

You'd wanna get to know me again

If you were worth while You'd be happy to see me smile

I'm not expecting sorry I'm too busy finding myself I got this I found me, I found me, yeah

I don't need your opinion

I'm not waiting for your "OK"

I'll never be perfect, But at least now I'm brave

I know my heart is open I can finally breathe

Don't be mad It's just a brand new kinda free

That ain't bad I found a brand new kinda me

Don't be mad [one version:'] It's a brand new time for me

IT'S JUST A BRAND NEW TIME FOR ME...

This is my sleeve journey song too

I'm on day 8 of my 14 day liquid diet... It just starred getting easy today! It was hard those first 7 days... I cheated with a tiny piece of Protein ( chicken breast) and a pickle... But remember to drink lots of water! The Water really helps keep u full.

has any body used this for their liquid diets

Are those the lean shakes from GNC?

Tomorrow for me, too!!

Well good luck to you too!!!

Congrats!!! Good luck and a speedy recovery!!!

You are definitely going to Lose a lot of weight Priya so just think of it as that... I have been doing the pre-diet for seven days and it is going okay and seeing the scale go down quite a bit I think I will reach my 15 to 20 pound loss by my surgery date of June 11... Good luck to you

Sorry I am using talk to text and it just sent it the way it was. What I meant to say was I can't wait to be full from a smaller portion it seems like it takes so much to fill me up now. I am on a liquid diet these two weeks and I am on day 6 .., 8 to go

Wow 116 lbs that's fantastic I wish I did this long ago but it is what it is:) 20 days to go I just don't want to fail I'm reading how you can stretch the sleeve out and gain weight back that scares me . I do have a positive outlook on this but I guess it's because I've failed at all my diets. I just don't want to ever get to that place of needing to eat so much to feel full . Thank you for your response it helped . Do you have any before and after pics ? I'm so happy for you !!

I totally Agree with what you were saying. I can't wait before from a smaller amount it does it dictates a lot of food to fill me up

All my june sleevers TURN THE EFF UPPPPP!!!! GOOD LUCK TO ALL GETTING SLEEVED THIS MONTH AND KEEP US POSTED!!! PRAYING WE ALL HEAL QUICKLY AND HAVE SPEEDY RECOVERY!!!

Yup it is go time! Ready or not time is flying!!

Good luck to all the June sleevers! Hope all is well with you all and keep us posted on your progress. 9 days till my surgery. I am so excited. I cannot wait to here about the new adventure we are embarking on. I will pray for all of you to do well and to heal quickly.

Me too... June 11th sooo excited!!! Good luck and well wishes and healing to June sleevers!

I did a similar program with my primary care Dr. and I lost 60 pounds in a relatively short amount of time I would say seven months... And I kept it off for several months but the weight slowly creeped back on.., I am scheduled to be sleeved On June 11th... So I agree with the other people that you can lose weight on a particular program but it's the transition into normal life that is hard to keep the weight off... Having a smaller stomach will limit the amount you eat... which makes maintaining the weight easier... I also think that you know when it's your time to go through with WLS.. For me I was ecstatic when I lost the weight but miserable when the lbs came back on.. Also the hormone gherlin is reduced significantly with the surgery so hunger will also be less... Some Even say they are never hungry after having the sleeve... Which will be a blessing for me Good luck in your decision making process

You are looking at 2 weeks of liquid before surgery, 1 week clear liquid after and 2 more weeks of full liquid before you are able to eat again. That is a total of 5 weeks for some it is 6 before they can eat again. Don't rush it and put yourself through extra weeks. It is not that great.

Lunaya, When did or do u get sleeved? And how r u doing

I started taking my Vitamins a month ago so that it's in my system by surgery.. I take a Multivitamin, calcium citrate, B-12 and a probiotic
