  1. Mine says the same thing. Try sipping the Protein like you do Water. I even have to take a break and go back to Water, then resume the shake. It's ok if it takes you an hour or more to get it down. Go slow. Also, you may not be able to tolerate making it with milk if you are used to it that way. Try making the shake with just water. Good luck!

    It's very hard to get in all that they are requiring...blah blah blah


  2. Surgery was yesterday and at first it was a bit painful due to the gas..slept most of the day off and on...by 5:00pm I walked twice around the hospital floor...this morning I'm good just sore, hard to get in and out of bed...just got my first puree breakfast..

    Nurse said to chew 25 times and only a bit every 5 minutes..that's hard bc it's already pureed...


  3. I'm going in Wednesday as well...I didn't really start getting anxious until a few days ago and now I can't stay off this app bc I'm trying to get an idea of what to expect..I've been freaking out about getting everything ready for Christmas done before Wednesday, getting the house clean, wondering what I'm gonna eat when I get home from the hospital...they need to put patients on nerve pills at least 3 days before surgery...lol


  4. My surgery is Wednesday and I've been on this journey for surgery since July...and then it seemed so far away and now its only a couple of days...I have been reading post on here since November just trying to prepare myself for the unknown...everyone's experience seems a lil different for each person, I just pray I prepared well enough...


  5. My surgery date is December 21st, I was aloud 4 dinners that I could eat lean meat, a starchy food and a vegetable..in the two weeks on the liquid diet...I've had three of my cheat dinners and today I had a snack size bag of chips bc I'm starving..I totally feel guilty about the chips but I've been doing 4 Protein Shakes a day and I'm able to eat sugar free pudding and jello...having a hard time with my Water but I've had a lot of will power most days while cooking dinner for my family and especially today we had a huge Christmas breakfast...I drank my shake...lol


  6. I don't live in Chicago but my surgery date is December 21st also..good luck to you!

    I stared my liquid diet today and it's definitely a challenge especially when you have to cook for your family...but I honestly didn't feel hungry..I was very surprised...

  7. Glad to know I'm not alone..I started my liquid diet today...it was easy till it was time to cook dinner for my family...this whole process has taken 6 months and knowing that my surgery is only two weeks away, and right before Christmas is a lil more stressful...I'll only be 4 days post op and I pray I'll feel good enough to enjoy the time with family...

    I'm ready for the next phase!
