Today I start the pre op diet. Surgery is almost here. I'll see how this goes.

So am I.. What are you taking?

You can do it! My surgery is on August 19th also. Today is Day 5 of my all-liquid, OptiFast diet. It does get easier after the first 3 days. Incorporate some exercise in as well if you can, like long walks...I've found that it curbs my appetite.

Drink lost of water and try to stay busy today is my second week of the liquid diet yesterday was my hardest day i cheated and had peanut and jelley sandwich and some potato salad .....I'm excited for the 19th to get here good luck to you all i have a question have you all told anyone that you are having the surgery I have not I have not even told my sisters or brothers only my husband and my children???

I haven't told anyone but my parents, spouse and brothers. No one at work knows.

This is harder than I thought. I'm hungry this broth is not working for me.

My date is the 20th. I only have to do 24 hrs b4 surgery clear liquids.

I totally understand having the same type of hungry day.. keep telling my self I can do it and so can you. Keep strong, keep your eye on the prize at the end. It is worth it

I'm on the 21st. Been looking for some people that around my time I can't keep in contact with.

I'm the 19th!!! I only told my sissy that's it.

I can keep in contact

Me too!!

Day 2 of clear liquid diet. It's a little easier I just keep thinking about the long term benefits. I can do this!
