Hello. My surgery is July 2nd...I'm on day 4 of my liquid protein shake diet and I'm so sick of drinking them! I can barely get 4 down a day. It wasn't so bad the first few days but now I almost vomit smelling the protein powder! I'm afraid I'm going to cheat, help please!

You will be fine and not die! I think it is the emotions of letting go of the past and when surgery is really happening it hits us in the face. There may be some hard times, but it is no worth it. And, you know your body and what it can handle. I've been able to eat anything I wanted to after surgery (I think getting rid of hiatal hernia changed my life with no more pain!) and am still losing. Keep us posted and don't be scared. This is a very easy surgery with great results.
