Four days into the liquid pre-op diet' date=' it's going pretty good! Enjoying an Isopure Protein Drink now so I know if I will like it after surgery. It's pretty good, I know they say your tastes change after surgery but if I know I like it before then I'm not as worried about lack of choice afterwords. Surgery still set for Sept 3rd, anyone else on liquids yet?[/quote']

I'm glad you said it was good I was hoping it would be good I bought a few bottles for after my surgery

Hi,

My surgery is 9-3 too! I'm starting my liquid diet tomorrow. I still need to run out and get some stuff to eat for the week. I'm not looking forward to not eating food all week especially being diabetic. Where do you buy the isopure drink at?

You September 16th people!!! We have less than 3 weeks to go!

Oh my god! Ahhh!

My approval came in today, just submitted last Thursday and doctor's office called at 1:00 PM and said surgery is scheduled for 9/11/13 at 10:00 AM. Start liquid diet 9/2/13. Since I did the liquid diet with the band, won't mind it as remember how great I felt eliminating the carbs, didn't realize how sluggish I felt until I had to do that diet, don't know if was because I'm a diabetic also or if it is just natural. Anyway when I brought it up to the doctor he said it was because I wasn't eating any sugar or carbs. Don't know if I should actually believe that as he is the same doctor who told me he hasn't had a patient who had to have their band removed. I must have been his first in all the years he was doing bands. (I actually switched doctors because of the clinic staff). So surgery 9/11/13 an on to a healthier life.

Just getting done with my pre op physical that included a huge blood draw, EKG and a chest X-ray! Fun times! I'm less than a week out now!

Go time on Sept 6 here...

I just made the best mocha shake ever! 1 scoop of Slimfast High Protein Creamy Chocolate, one container chocolate sugar free jello snack pack, 3 pumps of Torani sugarfree coffee syrup and ice!

Anyone else have any good ones they've tried?

I use the pre made slim fast high protein with some pb2 with ice add a spoonful of splenda...tastes like a Reese's.
