I am Aug 21st too! I think I would want to smack her for bringing that donut by me. My husband said I was cranky yesterday. I am on my 3rd day pre-op diet. The first went ok' date=' I was hungry throughout the day and went to bed hungry. Yesterday my stomach wasn't begging as much for some "regular" food and today was better than yesterday. I hope it continues to get better. You can get through this...a lot of people have gone before us and have been successful. :)[/quote']

Thanks for the words of encouragement...she almost had me with that donut! Hoping for a better day tomorrow.

Hi everyone- I am have been on liquids since Wdnesday morning. And that is Clear Liquids (not full) so no Protein Shakes. Water, flavored water, soda, broth, Jello and popsiciles. I am having a horrible time and feel tired, weak, shakey, fuzzy, and have headaches. I just brewed a cup of coffee (which we can have, no cream, no sugar). Thank goodness I only have the rest of today and Sunday-Tuesday like this. However, I am EXTEMELY worried about going to work Monday and Tuesday like this. Heck, I am worried about driving in about an hour to go to the chiropractor. Any advice?

If you have a GNC near I would suggest Isopure RTD so you can get Protein. Not sure if they taste ok but heck anything to get you out of your fog. That is a long time on clear liquids & no protein.

I wish I could. I even called the dietician and she said no protein.

A little juice diluted with Water twice a day and a cracker if I feel light headed.

They are serious about the no protien... :(

Only a couple more days.... Thanks for the advice though! I was looking at all of the Protein Shakes and water I have in the fridge for after surgery and wanted to down one so bad.... lol. I was good though and had a Coke Zero instead hoping the caffeine helps!

I can't wait to reach that milestone and feel healthy again, one thing I'm learning its not the easy way out its a lifestyle change for the better, anytime you have to change something you've always done its not easy at all.

Don't use mouth wash or breath strips while on antibiotics. I got thrush & I think that is why I got it.

Try coconut Water during your 1st week of clear liquids (post-op) -- good electrolytes and tastes refreshing (much better than Gatorade).

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
