I hope you did better fishing than I did! Where do you fish? I was in Delaware . Thanks for the list! I appreciate it! Surgery was 6/4/14 down 20lbs!

Just outside of Philly! In the burbs, but born and raised in Philly!

I would love a copy of your list! That would be so helpful!dianadb2@comcast.net

I had my post op visit today and I am down 15 lbs! Feeling great! Still get tired but no pain Meds. I already feel good about my choice to improve my overall health! Good luck to everyone that has yet to go!

My surgery was June 4 and was released today. When does the pain get better? I keep moving and it is improving but, need to feel a little more norma

I am on a protein shake liver shrink diet which consists of a shake for breakfast and lunch and for dinner I get 4oz meat, a cup of veggies( no corn or peas) and a salad. And all the water I want. It stinks!

Friday I go to sign all my consents and have pre admission testing done! I can't wait! I try to stag focused to day to day but it's impossible! My surgery is 6/4 and the I find out my daughter needs sinus surgery! And guess when? 6/3! My poor husband is going to be busy! At least I will be in the hospital for 2 days! Can't wait to be on the other side!

I started mine early on Monday. It is very hard when food is all around you! The shakes are satisfiying and filling but the mind wants more! That is the hardest to fight! All in all I am VERY excited! Nut and cardio clearence tomorrow! Recently had a stress test so I should be good there. Still smoke free and not missing them too much. My feet and knees are aching right now so walking is tough right now. Hoping when some of this weight is gone it will get better and I can be active again! So want to ride bikes with my granddaughters and run with my grandsons! 2 weeks to go!YAY!

Hi everyone! I am new here and have been reading as much as I can about this procedure I am about to undertake! It is scary and exciting all at once! My surgery date is scheduled for June 4th and it can't come fast enough! I officially start my liquid diet on Wednesday, but I am trying to get a jump start today! It will consist of 2 shakes and a sensible meal. Today I cheated and ate some celery! I was 249 at my first consult appointment and I have gained about 7 pounds due to quitting smoking! I feel guilty, but my nutritionist said it was fine. But I beat myself up over it!, But I am still not smoking! Good luck to everyone !
