I have a high BMI. Not sure exactly what it is. I started September 4 on a shake and water only liquid diet...I have had slip ups..but healthy ones (a piece of roasted chicken, small salad). I started at 280 lbs and am now 263 (17 lb loss). The first 3 days are the hardest..after that smooth sailing

Yes I'm very nervous but excited at the same time lol Yes mixed feelings lol my husband says I'm afraid of being skinny!!!! I guess he is right I have always been comfortable with my weight but in 09 I was diagnosed with diabetes and in 10 I was put on insulin so i don't want to have any more health problems that's y I'm going for this major surgery. How about you ??

Oct 9 I put myself on a protein shake diet 5 weeks ago, I just drink protein shakes and eat dinner. It will make the last two weeks before surgery easier then to stop eating cold turkey.. Good luck everyone and god bless

I should of done that because I'm starving out of my mind lol but it's almost over

October 3rd!! I just went for my pre-admission stuff and got my post-op diet today. I get soft foods after 3 weeks and stay on soft foods for 3 weeks. On the first day of week 7 I get real food (which happens to be the day before thanksgiving!)

I had my pre-op appt today too and my surgery also is on 10/3. I hadn't done the math yet so it's good to see when thanksgiving is. What time is your surgery - mine is 11:00 pacific time.
