I am 8 months out and I used to sweat really bad even in an air conditioned room. Now I don't sweat as bad but I have always been a sweater. This may be TMI but I used to sweat bad between my legs. Now I can go all day without my pants being wet. Loving it!

Oops I forgot to post I'm 46 years old, starting weight 215 at two week liquid diet and now 202.

I am 6 days post op and I had no nausea at all. Stayed one night in hospital then went home. Dr. said I am doing great! Had a gas bubble to get out but other than that I feel great and have been walking since I got out of surgery. This has been a great experience for me so far.

My surgery is Dec. 9th. I'm excited but nervous. I am hoping to lose 60 but my goal is 80. Good luck!

Rollergal, I am on day 3 of my two weeks of nothing but liquids and I am also gagging. Going to be a long two weeks. I'm hungry!

I am choking down the pudding. Yuck!

Hi TxStella, did you start your liquid diet today too?

Had my pre op appt. on Nov. 25th and my Dr. said I could start my liquid diet today. So yay, I had thanksgiving yesterday. Today and until my surgery it's liquids only. Going to be hard but so worth it in the end. Shits about to get real!

I'm scheduled for surgery on December 9th. I started my pre-op liquid diet today. Not too hard yet but just thinking about no food worries me. I want this so bad so I will do the work to get there. Just remember if you don't shrink your liver they might not do the surgery. And if you don't practice eating like this now, you may end up not losing like you want to. Good luck with your surgery and stay focused. You can do this!

Mine is Dec. 9th! So excited to start this new life too.

Probably right.

LOL! Rough is right but I will be with my family so I guess I can sip my shake while they eat. Can I spike my shake?

I am starting my 14 day liquid diet on Thanksgiving...OMG that is four days away!!! I'm excited but afraid at the same time. I just hope I can eat sugar free popsicles during this time.

I'm so excited! My surgery is scheduled for Dec. 9th but I'm supposed to start my 14 day liquid diet on Thanksgiving. Anyone else starting that day?

I gained 8 lbs. in two weeks and it was my last appointment yesterday. I have Anthem Blue Cross of CA so I hope they don't deny me because of that. I was also on steroids for 5 days for walking pneumonia. My NUT was not happy about the weight gain.
