Smh.....I will be on a liquid diet for Thanksgiving (surgery Nov 26th!!) ......not sure how this is going to go considering I have to work and we do a huge pot luck! I'm going to have to hide!!! Anyone else in my boat?

My surgery is the 12th and I started liquids on the 7th....I fixed a small thanksgiving dinner last Sunday for my hubby and kids still at home. They will all have thanksgiving on Saturday after my surgery so maybe having done that I want feel like I have missed out on so much. Good luck to all of you it will all be worth it.

Well good luck mines is on Tuesday.. no liquid diet though only 2 meal replacement shakes and a protein focused meal a day...i wish you and everyone else well.. (p.s. i am new at this so idk if i am doing this right..sorry)

I will keep you posted on how I am doing. He has been wonderful so far as well as his staff, but I am still nervous. Good luck with your surgery also

Hey my new wls family.... Just thought I would drop by and say hey and good luck to the people having surgery today ya'll are in my prayers... On a side note my doctor requires a 2 week liquid diet for surgery so I will be starting that soon and will be on it through thanksgiving which will be tough so my family decided to surprise me this weekend with a thanksgiving dinner at my house and the best part was I didn't even have to cook any of it lol.... I sure do love my family and how supportive they are
