Yes!!! The pain was especially bad on my right side. I slept in my bed with a pillow supporting my stomach (I layed down on my side).
The pain was pretty bad for about two weeks and then it lessened. Hang in there! It's worth it!

My nut said it was ok to put sugar free Torani syrups in my shakes. It saved my life. I bought raspberry and hazelnut flavors (I found them at Smart and Final).

I'm ok. Tired from lack of calories lol. I walked down a pier today and that was enough activity for me (granted it was also a 1.5 hour drive from where I live). Just laying low and waiting it out. Lots of chores this weekend to get everything **** and span so I don't have to worry about that for a while!

Excited to see so many set for the 8th (I am, too!).
@rayb70 @jmbeese45 How are you doing with the liquid diet? I wish I could say I'm used to it, but I'm not! Lol. My stomach is getting rumbly, but I'm so ready for this change!

I had to lose 5lbs before I saw him after all the preop testing, but that was the only required weight loss. I have a 2 week liquid diet (day 5 now) and I'm already down 13lbs....

My surgery is the 8th, as well!! I was so proud of myself yesterday; I went to pick up cat food and some more sf Jello for myself and I didn't break down and buy any junk food to sneak into my diet.

Welcome to day 4!!

November 3rd for me!!!! Crossing over to a “Be-sleever”

Cleared from pulmonologist and start preop liquid diet tomorrow. 2 weeks to go. Nuclear stress test Friday. I’m moving along with all cause it’s going down!!!

One day before me!! Do you have to do a two week preop diet? Mine starts Wednesday!!

Can I just say I'm glad you put this out there? I love alone I'll be having surgery Nov 8th. My parents will be bringing me home and I'm pretty I'll have to duke it out with my mom about being left home alone, but I figure if I'm alone, I can rest (and heal) better!
I'm packing up inedibles tonight to take to my parents and buying my GENEPRO on Friday.
Your post let me know I'm on the right track

My insurance approval came in today, so my date of November 8th is official!! So excited. Final nutrition class tomorrow and preop diet will start next week!

How are you all doing with your preop diet? Mine starts on Wednesday; I went to the store last night and got a carton of the Bone Broth and some sugar free Jello.
I was super excited to find that I can mix my shake mix with milk!!

I can see a definite change!! It's not too late to start measurements
