Hi, just joined a few days ago, I start my Protein Shakes, Multivitamins tomorrow. I am a little nervous about the diet, I am ready there is just so many tempting things and it does not help I have a teenage son who can eat the junk foods, I am just going to have to think about what I am doing to lose weight, because that is the goal here. I chose this surgery because it just seem to fit my lifestyle, I am sooo ready for it, and I have good support, my hubby is going to do the same diet, he said not the shakes but he is just so understanding about the whole thing I think this would be hard if I did not have his and my son's support on it. I hope I do well with this pre-surgery diet, I hope after a few days it will be a routine and then maybe I won't be so worried.

You are right...after about 3 days it gets easier...as long as you have a Protein Shake that is good. Good luck.

Yes, I started on the 18th only 3 Optifast daily and unlimited sugar free Jello and broth. It is very hard. I cheated once and had 2 hard boiled eggs. But I will try not to cheat any more.

My surgery is in 3 days and while I've been fine, I'm suddenly a bundle of anxious nerves... thinking about taking a xanax and going to bed! ugh...

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
