SD Kelly

Went for my weigh in on Friday July 25 lost only 6 pounds. Following the pre-op liquid diet as instructed. So disappointed

@@Ria1202, you got this you have come to far to get side tracked. I fight these urges everyday especially now that I'm still on my pre-op diet. My husband has a sweet tooth as well and eats like a kid: cookies, chips, sodas etc, etc, etc. So believe me I feel your pain and your struggle.

God Bless and Good Luck

I'm scheduled for the 28th, I am so nervous, scared, and excited all at the same time. OMG!!!!

Ria1202, it did get easier not as hungry as when I first started. Today was a bad day I had a headache all day but I stuck to my diet. 4 more days to go before surgery!!!!!

SD Kelly, it does get easier as the days go by. Think about your goal and where you want to be.

Good Luck Dexter1118, I am scheduled for surgery with Dr. De La Cruz on July 28th.

Wow!!!! I thought I was the only one. It seems as if everything started moving so fast once I got approval for surgery. Pre-Op class, Pre-Op liquid diet, Pre-Op clearance. My head is just spinning. Excited and scared at the same time

Don't worry I was told my approval could take up to a month. My patient advocate submitted my paperwork on July 1st and I was approved by July 7th. My Surgery date is scheduled for July 28th. Just have faith. Good Luck!!!!

Good Luck!!!!

Hello Everyone, I have a surgery date for July 28, 2014. I have to be on OPTIFAST for 2 weeks, I'm on day 2 and it is so hard. My question is does it get any easier to manage the hunger while on this liquid diet. All I am allowed to have is 5 OPTIFAST Shakes daily, water, SF Jello, a Crystal Light.

Wow at least you get to eat my 2 week liquid diet is 5 opti fast shakes daily.

Hi guys I'm new here but if all goes well I will have surgery on July 28th. Start shakes tomorrow
