  1. Elmira! Congrats! How long were you in hospital? What did you have done? How is liquid going? How do you feel?
  2. Thanks for your comments. Yes, I've stayed on the straight and narrow for almost a week now. Thanks for the info.
  3. Oh, thought my toes would be ok. Thanks for heads up!
  4. Has anybody had experienced cheating on liquid diet. (I'm totally liqid). I know it@not ok, but does a slip make you ineligible for surgery?
  5. What happens if you mess up on liquid diet?
  6. Thanks to all of you who replied. I really appreciate the imput. I will just hope for the best and ask the surgeon.
  7. So glad! Hope all is going well! Let us know!
  8. Oh, that would be great! I'll have to check with my surgeon.
  9. I've been on the liquid only diet for 10 days now. I've lost about 7 lbs.
  10. I take psych meds. There is one that is going to lose its potency when I open the capsule. How long until I can go back to taking my pills in regular form (not crushed or opene)?
  11. Hey snow! How did surgery go?
  12. I'm on next Tuesday! Excited and hopeful that ths will work!
  13. Oh, wow! That's ridiculous!
  14. It's not hard if you don't think it is. Mind over matter. I sit down at the table, have a cup of broth, then I wait a little while, then go back to the table and sip my protein shake. Makes it feel like a meal.
  15. I went to my final appointment today with my surgeon. Got a booklet explaining the surgery and everything I need to do in the next 12 days. They called me with an appointment to meet with the anaeestesiologist. And a covid test 2 days before.
  16. Hi Joanie! Welcome! I'm sure you're like the rest of us, excited but cautious!
  17. You're so lucky Julie! Wish I could have a meal!
  18. You're so lucky Julie! Wish I could have a meal!
  19. So sorry to hear that Kendall! I'm afraid that could happen to any of us. I've been wearing a mask and avoiding public except for groceries. I'm sure your Dr will schedule you as soon as possible. Just hopefully he's not as booked as mine 8s.
  20. I start on Tuesday too! ? my surgery is on July 12 I am also varying between excited and scared that it's not going to work. I have such a problem losing weight.
  21. I start on Tuesday too! ? my surgery is on July 12
  22. I got my insurance approval letter today! Yeah!
  23. Oh, shoot! Totally forgot my labs! Have to go Monday! Thanks for saying something!
  24. Hi kmc! So excited that we're twins! When do you have to start your pre surgery diet? Mine is liquid only, mainly protein, shakes.
  25. That's soon! You excited? I'm 6 days after you. Starting liquid diet on Tuesday.
