Like you, I am going to have surgery on February 29th. So nervous and excited.just had my toe amputated. Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

I'm on day 13 of a liquid diet. My surgery is Monday 2-22

@"Heavens2Betsy" Wishing u the best on your recovery. Walking and sipping are gonna be your best friends after surgery and it will get better each passing day. One thing that I didn't know was just how low the energy zaps after being disconnected from the IV....caught me off guard the days following my discharge, but it's getting better. Keep us posted.

Good luck to the both of you. And a painless & speedy recovery. I had my bypass Saturday and I feel pretty good. The gas pains come and go but all and all not to bad.

Hi all

Touch wood , no gas pain
Just had drain taken out . Was a little down , now that's out I feel good . Bring on the weight loss
By way fluids going down find also
Love to ya all xx

Hi everybody, my surgery is the 29th also. I'm following this thread closely to get a feel for what everybody's been going thru. It's been really helpful already! I also don't have and pre-op diet - except for the day before my surgery is Clear Liquids and then mag. citrate in the afternoon (not looking forward to THAT part!).

I've got my date too, Feb. 29th. I think that means my first surgiversary won't be until 2020?

I have no pre op diet, no liver cleanse either. Just no food the day prior to surgery and drink a bottle of mag. citrate the prior afternoon (& probably poop all night!). My surgeon says the liver cleanse thing is kinda dubious in that it's not going to clean out your liver much, and losing weight is the whole purpose of having the surgery anyway. BTW: my BMI is 52.5.

It's called stock. Stock is made when you boil bones. broth is made when you boil meat or veggies.
