Liquid Diet Day 1! How's everyone else?



Recommended Posts

So today is my first day of liquids and I'm feeling fine! I had a last meeting with my nutritionist and Pre- surgery testing... Now just the countdown to 8/13.

No appointments- no testing. Just two weeks to chill lol.

Confession: I've been fasting from sun-up to sun-down (about 17 hours with no food or drink!) for the last 20 days for religious reasons so this liquid diet is not so bad! Haha. I will miss that evening meal, though : /

How is it going for other August sleevers???

Glad to hear you are doing well!!

This is my second week of my four week pre op diet (surgery is August 16th) and I'm doing okay. Sometimes I fantasize about food lol or I will try and convince myself that I can run out for just one meal and I still have two weeks until my surgery to do just liquids but I have resisted.

On the bright side my house is VERY clean :D

I'm at day 6 of the liquid diet and it is harsh!!! I can only have 1 cup of SF jello' date=' 5 SF carnation instant breakfast, 3 SF Popsicles, and all the Water I want. -.-[/quote']

I feel your pain lol Day 2 is kicking my butt. My stomach has been grumbling... I'm going to have some broth later! I can have six Protein shakes (I'm doing Atkins Advantage & GNC lean shake) I can supplement it with broth, SF Jello, SF Popsicles & Crystal Light.

I'm day 1 and 26 to go! My band removal is 8/27 and I'm on a 4 week liquid diet. I think having the band helps because today I did fine with it. (But theres 26 days to go) Even when my husband had me drive through the taco shop so he could get a carne asada burrito. (Although I though it was pretty inconsiderate of him)!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
