Soo day two of the 14 day liquid diet. I am really missing anything about now.. saw a pop tart a co-worker left on his desk and considered taking a bite.. haha of course I didn't, but it was way to freaking tempting.

Looking for any encouragement out there.

Feeling loopy, having a hard time concentrating, and dealing with a monster headache. Other than that... working away and trying to smile.

I'm right there with you ... started liquids on 8/30 and surgery is 9/13 -- down 15.5 lbs so far! You can do this! I can do this! it was really hard at first but it is getting easier. I went to the grocery store today and most of the food didn't even look appetizing - crazy?!?

Good Luck!

I'm there too... Day 4 of hungryhungryhungry. I'm lucky because I get to do a combo diet the first week-- liquid breakfast/lunch and a solid lowcal dinner. Next week is going to be so tough though, since it'll be 100% liquid. Hang in there! I've lost 7lbs. so far, that's the only thing keeping me going. ugh.

Hi Tracey,

So glad to see another Orlando person, not many of us that I have seen. Where are you having your surgery and who is your Dr. I am having surgery 9-8, I didn't plan on Labor Day either, Liquids on the grill??

Hey ladies! I'm in Orlando, too! Well, technically Oviedo, but only because I live on the other side of the Orange County line

Welcome Fleur De Lis, Who is doing your surgery?

I was sleeved on The 15th by Dr Keith Kim at Celebration Hospital. I feel great today. Been walking and getting my fluids in. Tomorrow I start Pureed for a week then soft foods for two weeks. Hardly no pain after 24 hours. Just a bit sore like bruised feeling and gassy. And I cannot take the gas X it actually made me sick. Ever ablt to sleep on my side with a pillow proppeb under my belly.

A friend turned me on to Snow Cone places that had sugar free flavors. The place near me had 4 aweful tasing SF flavors, but the one near her had around 20 SF flavors. Grape is growing on me.
