  2. I’ve tried them all. Spent way too much money and landed on JBN chocolate. Not overly sweet and I mix it with unsweetened almond milk

    February 6th vsg surgery

    It is so hard cooking for the family and then sitting down to a cup of broth lol. I’m just so hungry all the time and have like no energy. It’s like torture. Where are you located? Do you have to drink all liquid or do you get a meal too?

    2 week liquid diet

    I went for a weigh in on the 18th. They were disappointed I didn’t lose any weight and I actually gained 4 lbs since my last weigh in in September. I’ve been avoiding carbs etc and lost a few pounds but my next weigh in before I start liquid diet for 2 weeks is Thursday. I’m so afraid they are going to say they have to push my surgery back because I didn’t lose enough.

    2 week liquid diet

    Did you lose any weight before you started pre-op diet?
  7. My pre-op is clear liquids and 4 protein shakes a day and of course no caffeine. I was a huge Diet Coke addict and decided to go cold turkey like a week ago. Very very hard lol. My dad, brother and sister in law all had gastric bypass and made it through. None of them had much pain at all. So I don’t think you have to worry about that. My date is Feb 6.
  8. You are not alone. I’m not excited yet either lol. I’m not worried about the post op pain. I’m worried about the pre op diet and being able to conquer that and then about not eating for a long time after that. If I didn’t have to cook for my family I probably think it would be easier. When are you having your surgery?

    2 week liquid diet

    Tomorrow I go for a weigh in and they said they will tell me if I have to start the liquid diet after that or if I can wait until my team meeting on January 25th. I’m hoping they say I can start liquids on the 25th. I don’t think I can have any type of solids. How about you?

    2 week liquid diet

    I feel the exact same way. Im having bypass Feb 6. I’m most anxious about the pre op diet

    Today’s the day

    Good luck! You got this!
  15. Same here!! I have the same date for bypass. Where are you getting it done? I’m so worried for my final weigh in next week bc I know I gained like 7 lbs since my previous weigh in in September.
  16. How are you making out with the pre op Diet? My surgery is February 6
  17. I’m glad to hear someone else went thru the struggle and survived. Are you on the liquid diet now?
  18. It does indeed hurt to wipe out the bank account. Lol. It will indeed be worth it.
  19. I need to say that to myself more often. My last weigh in is next week. Then I begin the liquid diet. I’m a huge Diet Coke drinker. Today was my first day with out any soda. I thought it would be best to get off it now. Needless to say I was so miserable all day. No energy etc. I’m dreading the liquid diet and I pray I can get through it.
  20. Having mine done in Allentown,Pa. My insurance doesn’t pay a dime. I’m using every cent of my savings on this. Ugh!!!!
  21. My surgery is February 6,2018
