im june 4th!! I start a liquid one week only starting May 28th wonder why some people dont have to do a liquid diet? Guess its up to the surgeon!

I am less than 2 weeks away. next week I start my liquid diet. Of Course I am having a little bit of the cold feet wondering about all the what ifs and will I be able to hold down liquids. Has anyone had a hard time or any regrets?

I am scheduled June 4th Debbie I went thru all the tests and now I feel over whelmed and skerd. I hope I make it thru the pre op liquid diet. My diet is liquids only high protein shakes.

I dont get veggies or anything else except for straight liquids and protein shakes

I hope we r on same pre op together i think it will be tough the first few days might have to pass out like a ole bear lol

yes didnt think about that but u r right!

yeti tumbler i must find one wjat kind of dill pickles do u eat? this all sounds like a plan!! ty for thus valuable info

you are so right Kim. I will get thru it. I tried it today as a experiment and it is tough just doing one day. I think i may have to sleep a week lmao!!

Thats what I plan to do sleep and probably eat popsicles and chug water but it seems like it could get really hard to get through by reading others stories.

JUst a general question. Is there a simplier way to get thru pre op liquid diet. Has anyone of you ever cheated? I go on mne in 3 weeks and was wondering do I need to hibernate? lol!

Frustr8 you made my heart sing with such positivity. I too lost dad a son then mom and recently hub was killed in a horrible wreck as he changed a tire on side of the road. My son lives with me and of course he is afraid I am all he has. I guess too my mom was 73 when she passed she didnt know it but she had a bleeding ulcer that put her in cardiac arrest she lived 13 days before she had another bleed. I suppose he worries about all that. Meantime I have gained so much weight from emotional stress eating and believe me I feel it 24 hours a day. Its even hard for me to trim my toes so i go get a pedicure each time. Me being short does not help much either. You are such a soldier a power candy crush bomb at 72. I cant wait to hear when you have your surgery and I know you will succeed to your hearts desire. I know I plan too I have saved for this surgery. I am all self pay it took me a while to get it together but I have it all now lol!! But Yes it does bother me with my son looking all worried. Sometimes I regret telling him but he had to know what was going on. You are right i will miss the hub and my 26 year old forver son in heaven he would be cheering me on he was such a healthy boy and my hub at first he didnt want me to have it but after talking with doctor he agreed he would go along wth me having the sleeve but unfortunately his life was cut short. This one is for me tho. Its my time we invest in cars and homes but its time I invest in myself. Good luck to you I hope we can keep each other posted!

oh gosh I hope so Ivy it has got to get better and more positive for us. We are planning on moving down into florida next summer after we sell house. Surgery will be a year passed by then I sure hope we have positive changes because its been bad after losing hubby. The surgery is a step in a great direction if i can get my nerves stable lol!!!
