Tomorrow we have a huge family bbq and I will be on my 6th day post op. I'm hoping it won't be so hard... I can do this! Just have to plan my liquid meals.

Good luck with that.. ill be on day 9 pre op.

Just remember it's just one day... make sure you drink lots of water and if you can do some protein drinks .... Happy Fourth...

Just think of all the years to come where you'll be swanning around with your more healthy self able to eat pretty normally if you give up just this ONE day.

You can do it!! I think you will be surprised how easy it is for you! I was 5 days post op this past Christmas, I just made sure to have things available that I could have and really wasn't bothered by it

I had Thanksgiving Day shortly after mine! You can do it!Don't give in to temptation! Happy Independence Day!

It's just one day! Concentrate on the family... watching the kids play (if you like kids, that is).. the fireworks, and the reason for the holiday!

Thank you all!! this group is definitely motivating and I'm sure I will go fine!! I can do this!!

Take the food plan your doctor gave you for post op eating. I told myself I would learn to eat vicariously through others and it worked. Still does today when I have to be in places where others are eating. I sometimes get a little self righteous and judge what others are eating. Should not do that as it is not good for my other program. Happy 4th.

??????ªit wasn't as bad as I thought it would be! I can do this!! I took my protein shake and my Greek yogurt and I didn't even think twice about all the food they had!

You will do fine. Keep your eye on your goal for good health! It is well worth it!

I had oatmeal for breakfast and for dinner a bowl of veggie/beef soup.
