Glad the liquid diet is going well for you guys so far!

Michele, I am really excited for you!! One day away from a fresh start.

People on the liquid diet - is anyone else having constipation? I'm sorry if that's TMI.

Hey FS4ever, we have May 22nd! Good luck, Do you start your liquid diet on the 12th like me?

For the constipation problem, try drinking at least 64 oz. of water a day - not counting coffee, tea or Crystal Light. That has really been helping me stay regular. I drink 4 oz. of water every hour that I'm awake and it's not too hard.

I'm on may 9th. I'm soooo scared when I go under. The good thing I guess we will be knocked out. I'm doing the lap band and plication. Does anybody else gonna do that?

I jus got my unjury mix today...I jus ordered the individual packs to try them out..I've heard that they are pretty good.

I did that last week just tried the strawberry sorbet! It's good doing the broth one tomorrow

Congrats girls on surgery dates and sticking to the diet.

Well today I had my first breakdown. 3rd day of liquids. Every day is harder, not easier. I am just so hungry today and feel so physically weak. I have had enough protein so far (50g) yet I have no energy. I feel frustrated.. I just went into my car and cried.

I am so sorry that you are having a bad time with this. I started the liquid diet on my own because I have so much to lose before surgery.(50 lbs). I know that this is a very trying and emotional time but think about how much better you will feel this time next year I feel the emotional ups and downs too and I just think about 6 months from now and the last 46 years that it took me getting to where I am today. Its ok to cry,I am sure we will all do it at one point or another as this is all foreign and a little scary for us all.

While you are doing the liquid diet you are taking vitamins too,correct? You dont want to get deficient in other nutrients and vitamins during this process.Now is a good tiem to get yourself into the regime as it is something that we will have to do for the rest of our lives. I went and bought myself some gummies so that I feel like I am getting a candy treat ...lol

I hope that the rest of today will be better and that you will gain some strength in knowing that we are all here for you. Maybe in two weeks you can tell me to stop whining like the baby I KNOW I am going to be when it comes to the surgery!!
