Thanks......Surgery is the 17th!!! Got me some popsicles too, forgot to mention!! Oh and some smoothies!!

woot! Good luck....Congrats again on your journey

Good Luck, enjoy the journey it's not always easy but it gets better every day, stay positive.

Welcome to the forums, we are so happy to have you join us. You can and will do well, just keep reminding yourself of the prize at the end. Generally, once you get past day three things do get much easier. And remember, you have all of us to support you.

You go girl, follow the instructions and drink lots and lots of crystal light or Mio what ever you can do to stay full. When you think of food remember that when this is over and your back on solid foods you can eat your favorites again, just not as much. Think how great you will look with the weight off and wearing your skinny jeans instead of a cheeseburger ok?
