Hello to everyone! I just wanted to give a little update. I started pre-op liquids on jan 26th and sleeved on feb 9th. Been doing good, no roadblocks with food nothing has really given me a issue. Just taking it day by day, but I felt like posting because today was 100 pounds lost! and I hope everyone is doing well on their journey! and wanted to thank those who helped me along the way, specially tiffikins, that women is a angel with a keyboard. hope everyone is great

My VSG is scheduled feb 9th, i have quit smoking since this past sunday the 24th, i've had 1 and 12 cigs since then... I started my liquid diet this past tuesday. Truly the hardest thing I have ever had to do.... Sigh day one i cheated with eating a couple tortilla chips (5 to be exact) with a pickle and a piece of cheese... that was day one, im now on day 4 and last night I broke down hard and collapsed into old ways... It wasent TO horrible of a fu*k up but I feel it was, I had 2 pieces of bread with 2 pieces of cheese heated up in the microwave with a couple tortilla chips and what really topped it off cheat-wise was I had a hostess cupcake (I know... I know) I got 11 days to sugery i just gotta make it cheat free past this weekend and hopefully i can get my act together.... i just needed to vent

So I made it past the weekend with out a big mess up, it was hard getting through with out getting any fast food being around my friends all weekend they were eating all the favorites of mine! After a almost break down I made it through it. Today Is 10 days to D-day and it was my last feeling and chance of "cheating". So I gave myself a good job dinner (totally cheating, but i believe it was the best healthy cheat I could do) I made some chicken broth home made for this week coming up, so I had a small piece of the boiled chicken that I used to make the broth, and a few of the carrots that were in the broth. Gotta admit, not smoking cigs was a little more difficult of a time this weekend due to the fact I used them a few times to get over the hunger... But I've consider this my stopping due date. (Well Monday) So after tomorrow It will be 1 week till im sleeved... And thanks to everyone for their support! I wonder how many calories Would be in that dinner I had tonight..

thanks to you all for the support! I got a couple pm's asking me what type of diet I was on. The surgeon has me on, 3 Boost Glucose Control Shakes.... Breakfast, Lunch, and dinner with a low fat yogurt included with dinner. Im also allowed to include two lowfat jellos and another low fat yogurt, also I am able to have 2 servings of 12cup of either low sodium chicken brothbeef broth. The main problem I think is not being able to chew any of the food!!!! So 10 more days!!! Tryin to take one day at a time

Hi my name is Mike and my sleeve is on Feb 9th.... I start my pre-op liquid diet on the 26th... I googled my procedure looking for a place like this ... Imma go start reading posts now.... One question for any of you smokers out there... My surgeon hasn't told me when I should quit smoking pre-op ... Anyone know the time line on that? and im glad i found a site like this
