Started my 2 week liquid diet today. Surgery is Oct. 13. I've done ok today until right now. I really am hungry!! Hope this gets easier. Anyone else that has started the liquid diet struggling?

I've struggled almost everyday with it. I thought it was supposed to get easier but I'm on day 7 and it hasn't, at least for me.

Chug a glass of Water when you feel hungry. It will help a little.

I forget the name of the hospital but it is in Tijuana. I spend the night at the Marriot on Wednesday, two nights at the hospital and then two more at the Marriot and back to San Diego on Monday and fly out about 3pm. Where are you from? I'm from the Houston area.

Hello :) I think our two hospitals are pretty close to each other. Do you fly into San Diego? I fly there Wednesday. I am going to Mexicali bariatric center in Baja California, mexico. I am excited and nervous as well. How long do they keep you in the hospital? Lets definitely keep in touch :) we will literally be going thru this together. Best wishes to you too and safe travels.

Grrrr. Got a call today. The surgery coordinator was off for a couple weeks. Apparently the person taking over for her messed up. My surgery was bumped from 10/6 to 10/14. Then my husband called and bitched. She called me back a few hours later and said they had a cancellation 9/22 if I wanted it. That's just a little toooo soon since I haven't planned for it, have patients scheduled, would have to start post op diet TOMORROW. She said she was going to offer someone else on 10/6 the earlier appointment and try to get me back on 10/6. Still haven't heard back from her! Soooooo frustrating.

Karen

I hope they got you worked out - they're really messing with your schedule - I see.

Where you able to keep your October surgery date?

Dana, I'm EXCITED! I'm on day 2 of liquid pre-op and lost 7lbs so far. I am starting to feel the effects already of no sugar, caffeine, carbs...but like you said...ONLY 12 MORE DAYS!

Wow!!! This is fantastic! How do you feel overall? Are you able to work ft w/the pre-op? I'm worried I'll be super exhausted... And I start mine tomorrow..

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?

      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
