@@mduffield Hi! I read that you're taking organic supplements. What kind of organic supplements? If you don't mind me asking.

I'm taking " garden of life." Organic supplements. Cheapest from Amazon. They are great! I love them and are much more affordable for me. I also only take half dose right now since there's so many Vitamins in my shakes. Don't see a point when our bodies can only absorb so much at a time.

My date is Jan 15th. Started my pre op diet today which is 6 days early. Praying I am tough enough!

We share the same surgery date, I start my preop diet on the 3rd. We are praying for the same thing. Good luck.

If you look at the pre op forums, scroll down till you see ones that are 1 day old and it should be around there.

I'm jan 5th!! I was supposed to start my liquid diet today but I started yesterday to give me a buffer.

IM STARVING!! I know it's more in my head than anything else.

I actually dreamt of tacos...

I mean SERIOUSLY!?

I don't even care for them that much!

Now my coworkers (2 i work directly with) are getting mcdonalds for lunch.< /p>

Looks like I'll be walking around the building while they eat that.

Brutal. Oh well! I want this more than anything sooooo is what it issss!!

I just got back from the grocery store UGH talk about hard to to. Only my second day on the liquid only diet and it was killer. I had to buy the food and my kids both had chicken nuggets while I was shopping, I had to get my husband to push the cart so I wouldn't have to see the food in the cart and smell my kids food, It was brutal. I'm actually starving it is not just head hungry but I'm hoping that in a day or two the headaches will subside and my stomach will shrink and the hungry will be less noticeable! 2 weeks til surgery yay!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
