I'm not overly concerned with the actual surgery but i started my liquid diet Friday and have cheated a little every day. Yesterday I cheated a lot. Half a breakfast sandwich, a bag of cashews and a bunch of popcorn. I'm so nervous even though my liver isn't fatty anyways. Whoever thought of this clear liquid diet has obviously never been on one. 23 more hours!!!!

I think ur fine aslong as majority is liquid diet .. It's very hard I know

My surgery is tommorow at 2 pm also I been on water and cup of milk and on this magnesium ride ...

Ooh good luck to you!!! I really hope they remove every ounce of Grehlin from my stomach so I'm never hungry again.

My surgery is thursday. I have not been put on a liquid diet. I obviously know to not eat the night before surgery but I haven't been given a lot of pre surgery instructions. ????

Thanks and yeah me to "ditto"!

-ohboyherewego- check with ur doctors ask questions

I been on Water , broth , geltin .. All day and nonfat milk I'm allowed

Good luck tomorrow!

Good luck to all of you this week! It is a very nervous and exciting time! Remember to ask for the flavored sponges they will hydrate your lips and mouth after surgery. They are a life saver!!

Good luck everyone on your surgeries coming up this week and the beginning of your new life journey. Flavored sponges? I had no idea there was such a thing. I think my hospital staff may have been holding out on me.

It is my one tip I give out to all presleevers about to have their surgery. I can't tell you how much they helped me!

from what I've heard, flavored sponges are a lifesaver after surgery. I'm pretty sure I had them when I was banded. 13 hours from now, I will hopefully be happily sucking away on one until they allow me some broth or jello

Hello all, I'm still up and my surgery is literally less than 6 hours away, I think I've done everything, said goodbye to all the yummy snacks and the pepsi cola. Dang it was a bitter sweet moment. Well wishing all the November sleevers a happy healing

24 hrs post op. Sore but walking. Definitely used lemon glycerin swabs. Extremely dry mouth. All smiles though. Good luck to everyone and don't over do it!

Glad to hear you are doing well!

Yay you!!!

Had really bad experience. 2nd day post op had iv infiltrated and broke out in rash and reddness. Itching all over. Had alot of new meds I've never had before so could have been anything. Home now. Surgery was the 4th still sore but more tolerable. Still have large rash on right side of my face. Never had n/v. So glad. Not sure I could handle much more!
