  1. @@cryssyd3 I would like to see your diet, it's interesting how different each pre-op diet is. Good luck, I am scheduled for the same day as you.

  3. @@GreenEyes604 Fabulous idea! But, nothing comes up when I search on FB.
  4. Following, I too am worried about this aspect of my liquid diet. I start mine next week, only 2 weeks, I can't imagine having to do it pre-op for 4 weeks. Good luck!

  13. I am scheduled for Dec. 2. EGD October 30. liquid diet starts Nov. 18th. Last pre-op Dietician class Nov. 20th. Pre-op physical Nov. 24th. Sh** is getting real now!
  14. I am scheduled for Dec. 2nd, I cut out caffeine a couple months ago in preperation for surgery. My liquid diet starts November 18th. I am starting to follow it during the day M-F, more to try out things I can have on it than for any other reason. I want to make sure I have a variety of things during the liquid phase that I can enjoy and not feel like I am having the exact same thing every day. The only soup I am allowed on the liquid diet is tomato and I have never been a huge fan of it so trying out different brands to find ones I like. Good luck to all!
  15. You look fabulous!! Congrats on entering onederland!
  16. I am scheduled for December 2nd with Dr. Smolik in Des Moines, Iowa.
