I'm happy ur doing well

Congrats on your surgery Matt. So glad you are doing well. Grandma, I'm on day 3 of my liquid diet. My surgery is the 12th. I can't wait! :)

Flmommy are you in full liquid diet also

Yes ma'am I sure am. Day 4!

Day 4 for me also. How are you doing? I've actually done better then I thought. Still early though..... I feel this is a great test to our determination and ability to change our eating habits for life.

I've done good. I do get hungry but it eventually passes after a little while. A week prior to this I did start drinking 2 shakes a day and eating about ½-¾ cup of meat for supper. I felt like I needed to do that to prepare me for the full liquid diet. I think it has made it easier. But I did eat a thanksgiving dinner lol. It was going to be my last full holiday meal so I couldn't pass that up. I drank some broth on day 2 but other than that just the shakes. I think I'm gonna stick with the meal replacement shakes. I'm glad you are doing well. I know you are as excited as I am. :D

I cut myself too back in November 4 my first surgeon appt to ween myself into small portions and new lifestyle too. Lost on that too. I agree it might be what's making this liquid diet easier. I also have up caffeine and soda. Even though I didn't drink much before. What type protein drinks are you drinking. I do prow tie shake premier vanilla or chocolate morning and dinner and a Greek yogurt at lunch. Gets me at 72 grams protein. Also so excited.

I Have a question about H-pylori. my surgery is for the 29th but I tested positive for h-pylori. I'm on the antibiotics and I retest on the 23rd. What are the chances I could test positive again?

I'm sorry Cantini I don't know what that is. I'd google it!
