    The pre-op diet is only a little tough for the first few days... after that it's routine... so worth it!! I'm 6 days post op and let me tell you, I'm so glad I hung in there! You will do just fine!!

Best of luck to you on your new journey!!! :D

Good luck to you! I too am starting my pre-op diet tomorrow; not all of it is liquids; I do get to eat protein bars and protein chips....so we can whip this! :D

Best of luck. Jump in with both feet.

Best wishes to those before me! Thanks for posting your thoughts and achievements.

I start my Preop diet Monday. I was feeling prepared for it, but today I'm having twinges of anxiety!

It is very nerve wrecking. But nothing we can't all handle!!!

Thanks for encouragement. Can't figure out the anxiety, very unlike me. ...I guess a few deep breaths and a walk to clear my mind...
