Surgery date

Is September 16

Hi Lucy,

I"m having surgery on the 16th as well. I'm not supposed to start my diet until the 2nd but I decided to start today. This is definitely no fun. I'm so hungry right now. We have to keep pushing through. It will all be worth it in the end.

Keep it up.

Sharon

Yes.... the liquid diet!! This is going to be interesting! Lucy - you have to do 3 weeks?

I don't know if this is true for everyone, but I can't even finish a whole shake at once since my surgery. Those hunger pangs are gone! It's amazing. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, just hang on you can do it!!

Hey everyone, just returned from the supermarket. I bought everything I need to start my 10 day liquid diet on September 1st. For breakfast: chocolate Protein Shake with a banana (blended together). Morning snack plain yogurt. Lunch: chicken veggie Soup (blended to make it smooth). Snack: pudding. Dinner: same as lunch. Night snack pudding. That's it! I drink Water with a little bit of Crystal light. I'm happy I got my diet approved because so far I really like eating everything I'm going to have for the next 10 days. ????

Anyone having surgery in September? Just got my date and overwhelmed with emotions!

Yes! I'm scheduled Sept 15th!

Shelly 79 hang in there. It's funny when you are preparing and going thru your psych visit, nutition, and all the others in your head you know the day will eventually come but once you get the call that the date is set reality starts to set in. I think about all the thousands of dollars spent on the clothes I have in my closet that will be donated. I also think about the unknown of what my body will become as I head down this road. The surgery does not scare me. I am sure there will be some pain . Life after surgery is my worry. But when I think about the healthier side of what my life will become I smile and all the other worries go away. My clothes will be donated to the Women's shelter in Atlanta, some will go to the consignment stores where I hope to make a little money to buy the new clothes I will need and my weight center has a clothes closet where you can trade the clothes you can no longer fit for those you can. This journey is scary the fear of the unknown. What's wonderful is finding other's you can share your thoughts with , find support and support others which is what I love about this blog/site. Good luck and we'll wishes to everyone.

The book Weight Loss Surgery for Dummies has been a tremendous help to me so far.

Ok so, today is the day. My 10 day liquid diet starts today. I'm looking forward to it because I've prepared myself and looked at all the wonderful progress everyone is making here and I'm ready to be part of it.
