Hey everyone. I am 3 days post op. I have been meeting my water goals and slowing incorporating pudding jello and applesauce into my diet along with premier protein. Even with waters, I get that terrible feeling that it is coming back up or it’s stuck...it passes in 3-5 seconds. I’m curious on how long this phase lasts. THANKS IN ADVANCE!!

I have one week to go until my surgery. The count down is REALLY on. I couldn’t be more excited about this change in my life. I do have some nervous feelings, as expected l, but I believe this is the right thing to do. I am going into surgery with one of my very best friends. I will have the best support from her! Having had surgery on my uterus l, I know the gas pain is going to be the worst part of this but I am ready to conquer it! WALK WALK WALK. I hope everyone is doing well and for those of you waiting, your day will come!!

I stay busy cleaning my house. Visiting my mom down the road....work & family life keep my brain occupied. Someone from the outside looking in, would have NO idea I was having a major life changing operation coming up. I start liquid Friday. Only a 3 day pre op requirement for my doctor that I am thankful for. 1200 calorie diet until then. Still downing 64+ oz water daily.

You look great! Keep it up! I’m one week pre op! I’m so excited for this change and a better me!

I, too, drink better with a straw. I’m still pre-op, but I heard this, too. I’m guessing because of the little bit of extra air you take on with a straw. I’ve been practicing with sips and making my mark pre-op. We will see how it goes. *one week*

April 2nd! One week out!! Best wishes!
