I am on my 3 day liquid pre-op diet. Surgery in 2 days. It is going well, 3.6lbs lost in just 1 day!

But man I am craving a bacon cheeseburger something bad... and some hot french fries dipped in mayo!

Just something to bite & chew on!!!!

But keep telling myself this is all worth it & trying to be good.

I caved today though & had one of the kids popcorn fish balls.

I have no willpower, it is so bad. Ugh.

Way to go! Stay strong! I lost 19 pounds in a week and a day, so the liquid diet does work. Keep us updated after the surgery!

19 lbs!! I sure hope I lose like that!! That's awesome! Way to go!

Thanks for the support! It does feel good to have my gym shorts falling down at the gym. I just hope it is this good after the surgery and I can eat a piece of chicken.

Pre op diet sucks! Down 7#s but it's been so hard :/... I've cheated a few times. Protien shakes, veggies, 3Oz lean meat and small fruit have not been cutting it. But I'm going in these last 3 days with no meat... Hopefully I go down 4 or 5 more pounds. Please pray for me and I'll do the same for you all too. May 11th will be the day my life changes for the better :)

Thanks. You gave me an idea: sucking the BBQ sauce off of a rib. huh? I might have to do that after surgery. BBQ and movie popcorn are two things I will go to my grave eating, just not a lot after May 14.

it's okay you'll be able to get through it! I was at a restaurant today and had nothing but water! I think all my willpower came from losing 7 pounds since Sunday on this clear liquid diet. it's crazy how you can lose weight like this but it's obviously not realistic lol. great job today and we're almost there!!!!

I am May 8t! I think I'm starting to obsess a bit. Very excited' date=' but still nervous...eeekk![/quote']

How did you do?

Pre-op diet has been a little tough. Even more so because I leave tomorrow for Mexico and I have been doing my bowel prep. WARNING GROSS... Who knew you could poo so much when all I have had to eat is jello. I had lost almost 10 pounds when I weighed in Tuesday morning. I am sure when I get up in 5 hours I will have lost more. That is if I get to fall asleep. I keep getting up to go to the bathroom. It is worth it.. it is worth it!

Thursday' date=' May 17th!!!!!! :D[/quote']

Scheduled for May 17th as well, at a hospital a little on the outskirts of Houston, Texas :-) Nervousness comes and goes for various different reasons :-/
