I’m also scheduled for gastric bypass next Wednesday, the 27th. I’m on Day 8 of the liquid diet. I’m not really hungry, and haven’t been for a few days, but I sure want to eat something other than drinking shakes and Water. I’m sure it’s all psychological but I was really craving chips and salsa last night.

One more week! It’s a bit surreal that it’s this close but I am so ready to get it over with.

Hi, DavidP, I'm so ready as well! Im on day one of the liver shrinking diet. I only have to do one week. I'm not yet nervous. More looking forward to a new life, but I'm sure I'll be nervous next Tuesday night! Best wishes!!

I am on Day 6 of the 2 week Pre-op liquid diet and I've done exactly what was prescribed, 3 Protein Shakes a day and lots of Water and sugar free Jello or popsicles a couple times a day for a snack. The 2nd day was pretty rough and I still have a mild headache at times, but I'm getting to the point that I'm just not hungry. I drink the shakes at certain times of the day but only because I have set reminders, not because my body is telling me that I'm hungry. Has anyone else experienced this?

It depends on your doctor but a 2 week pre-op diet seems to be pretty common.

Just found out today, March 27th. Just found this site today too!

I am having surgery on Wednesday, March 27th and hope to be back to work the following Monday, at last half days.

If you are scheduled for surgery in March, start sharing those dates. Make some friends with people who are having surgery on the same day
