Good Morning everyone! Good luck to all those having surgery today! Day 3 of my pre op diet, lost 12 pounds! Feeling hungry in the evening but ive been getting by. Hope everone has a great day!

Hi Jan My date is the 22 also. Have you had to start ur liquid diet? I feel a little bit better this morning. I was a little hungry last night but i ignored it and seem to be fine this morning. Im getting excited and counting down the days. Good luck to those having surgery today. Have a beautiful day!

Im drinking the drinks that i got right from my surgeons office. They told me I could also have an 8 ounce glass of juice 25 % juice and 75 % water and a glass of skim milk. Im on a 1000 calorie liquid diet. Ty for replying I havent really talkedto anyone on here.

Today is my first day of my liquid diet. I have surgery the 22. I have to drink 5 protein shakes a day, and at first it was fine but now im hungry. Any suggestions, I really could use some support. I do not want to fail.

Just wanted to add myself to the list I started my liquid diet this morning! :mad2: September Band List Soco 9/01/09 Amandakrangel 9/1/09 Coloradomom (Gen) 9/1/09 ms_Hart37 9/1/09 mosean6278 09/01/09 katklaws 09/01/09 SmilinShel (Michelle) 09/01/09 Comet321 (Chris) 9/1/09 ivy76 9/02/09 $occer mom 9/3/09 Jmtmb (JoLynne ) 9/4/09 JLDChester(Jamie)9/4/09 Cortney75 (Cortney) 9/4/09 tzn (Karena) 9/8/09 mrsyellis (yohontas)9/08/09 Jules 09/09/09 Soldiersgem(ginna) 9/9/09 pr8453(Pam) 9/9/09 bradybrat 09/09/09 Ready4a2ndchance 9/09/09 travel (Anita) 09/09/09 kittkat2009 09/10/09 Hmarko (helen) 9/11/09 stardustic 9/11/09 BrentinLA 9/14/09 Queen Bee 9/14/09 amwash23 9/14/09 romain123 9/14/09 Nawlinzlady (Dee) 9/15/09 Anni80 (annie) 9/15/09 smallerj (jes) 9/16/09 Boo Cakes 9/16/09 Hardygostlin (Jody) 9/17/09 Loveslady(Tawonda) 9/17/09 Gatorgirl1024 (Shelley) 9/17/09 MishiB (Michelle) 9/17/09 Sharie3 9/21/09 Italia2020 (Mia) 09/21/09 Ariane (Ariane) 09/21/09 Jenna1979 (Jennifer) 09/22/09 Pookiemp 9/23/2009 leigna 09/24/09 Chickychoo (Jill) 09/28/09 Kinzie 09/28/09 Soexcited 9/30/09
