Hey all.... Some of us figured it would be easier to buddy up so that we could follow each other through the process from here on out.

I'm scheduled for surgery on Sept 8th and I start my liquid diet on Sept. 1st. Everything happened so quickly after my last NUT appt. yesterday..... I am feeling a combo of nerves and excitement. I have to get labs done tomorrow morning, I see my surgeon on Thursday, and I have my pre-op next Tuesday.

My husband has taken a few days off work to be with me and I have started making a list of things I need before the big day.

......... I can't wait to be on the losers bench.

I'm doing great so far but I am use to drinking my Breakfast already. It's lunch and dinner time that may be difficult.

I have had a Protein shake for breakfast, some watermelon Water, and 1/4 of an organic raw kombucha drink so far.

I'm doing great I've had my Protein shake and 3 cups of lemon/mint Infused Water this morning, and for lunch I'll have low sodium Beef broth.

I hope y'all are doing well today stay strong guys It's almost over .

Did your surgeons say that you had to watch your carb intake during your liquid fast pre-surgery.

I'm logging my liquids on MFP and EVERYTHING has carbs in it.

My date is Sept 5th. Good luck to everyone!

No...My nutritionist wrote out my meal plan I have 2 shakes a day Beef broth for lunch, 2 Snacks greek yogurt 80 calories, and at night a sugar free popsicle. And as much Water as I'd lke.

We have pretty much had the same thing so far but I opted for chicken broth today.

My husband is kinda fasting with me.. So that makes it easier.

Haha...I'm doing It alone I'm actually not even hungry..

How was everyone's first full day?

Thank You All

It was ok my stomach rumbled a little lol.

Today has been easier than I expected (so far). I think it's because I have been on the go since early this morning.

I have not thought about food.... Unlike yesterday when that's all I thought about. Lol

I need to get some exercise but I usually end up "thinking about it" but not actually doing it.

Hello all! I'm scheduled for RNY on the 8th. I'm mostly excited, but a whole lot nervous too. My Dr doesn't have me in a liquid diet, just high protein/low carb. Interesting how different the programs are. My dr is at a base hospital tho, maybe that's part of it.

Hi Heather_marie

I'm excited too.... My Wednesday is half way over already. Time has been flying by.

I have instructions for a liquid diet but I was told that I really just have to watch the carbs, sodium and sugar as well.

I am mostly on liquids but I have had chicken once, veggies and fruit.

Monday can't get here soon enough.

Hi! My gastric bypass surgery is Sept 8th! Glad to find you all, I'm excited for this journey and glad to be able to keep track with everyone here.

Hello.... I wonder how many of us in total will be having surgery on the 8th. Seems like a lot. I can't wait to hear about everyone's experiences.

KyrieAlaina- are you currently on a liquid diet?
