The Hospital just called me with my surgery time for 9/16 ... 3:30 pm. Ugh. Said not liquids from midnight before even though it is almost dinner the next day, any suggestions? I'm so excited, just bummed about spending the entire day waiting.. Thirsty and hungry.

I hate when they do that as well. I had a hip surgery it was at 5pm. Just try not to think about it and it's not too bad is my suggestion. Good luck!!

my suggestion or should i say what I would do is sleep the day away and if I can turn up the music and clean what you can, make sure everything is ready for when you go back home.

Last night I decided to try putting my nectar Protein in the blender with ice and Water. I liked it much better but it was very frothy. This morning I put 8 oz of water and about 6 ice cubes in the blender and crushed the ice. Then I put the nectar protein in my shaker bottle, poured the ice water in with it and shook it up. Makes it nice and cold! Kind of like a slushy.

Hi Rachel, my name's Janis (not Lucrezia, lol) Well, I'm supposed to be doing an all liquid diet, but have really been struggling...made it about 85%. I've managed to lose 25 lbs in the past few months, though and I'm doing just liquid this weekend. I'm excited and a little nervous, too. We're going to do great!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
