Hi All,
I'm on day 13 of my two week pre-op liquid diet. This is truly mind over matter. I thought ny first week would be more difficult but my second week was harder. My liquid diet consisted of 4-5 Protein shakes, one cup of beoth, and unlimited sugar free Jello and Popsicles. I made the mistake of working out so make sure you have enough energy before trying. Keep your focus on the end surprise. Don't cheat this helps you post-op! Sunday will be night before I'm not to have anything but Water after 6pm and nothing after 10pm. Surgery set for 845am. Good luck to us all and kudos for all post-op and speedy recoveries!

Had my surgery on 24th of March. Has been very challenging, mentally and physically draining! However I notice that each day it gets better.
Any pointers?
I'm keeping track of my Fluid intake, taking my Vitamins, using breathing thingy (forgot the name) LOL.
Pre-op weight (prior to 2 week liquid diet): 298.6
Pre-op (right before surgery): 287.3
Goal Weight: 188.6

I am so excited! I just tried on an old dress for Easter. It hasn't fit for about five years but it fits now! No elastic and no stretchy fabric.
Before starting this WLS journey, I was most comfortable in women's size 32. My Easter dress is size 26 - and it FITS!
My WLS is scheduled for May 12 and I am already down about 40 pounds in 2 months.

Monday 3/28/16 is my sleeve.
