My date is November 28th. Been on a liquid diet for 6 days now. Lost about 8 pounds! Getting very nervous but I keep reminding myself that I am doing this so that I will be around to see my family grow up. Thanks for all of you who post on this site. You are all an inspiration. Go sleevers

Eating once a day??? My surgery date is the 29th and I only had to do a 7 day diet - been doing good though, search for different ways to change your shakes - and findout what triggers you to 'eat' and stop... . You can do it!

like last night I ate a burger patty (meat only) and today I had 2 eggs and a piece of sausage...the shakes do not taste bad to me I just cant drink 5 of them a day so I have been having two and something small to eat with no sugar and no carbs

Are you mixing your shakes with water or skim milk? Because the firs time I tried drinking my shake I mixed it with water and i couldnt drink it... Now i only have 4 shakes a day since I mix it with skim milk... And to be honest I am not even drinking 4 since I run out of time... ive been drinking more like three and one cup of chicken broth- and trust me- not hungry one bit... You really should stick to the diet because your surgery is around the corner and you wint have a choice then...
