Good luck with the liquids! I actually lost 15 lbs when they weighed me right before I went into surgery, most of that from the 2 week preop diet.

Im at 264 this am before the surgery..????

Let the weight loss begin! Lol

Yes! ????

I'm home from the hospital and feeling better than expected. My doctor does not do the liquid diet. After my swallow test I had liquids for Breakfast. At lunch when I could eat 2 oz of tuna fish or cream Soup - it was my choice with n problems, they sent me home! I am home for Christmas - so happy. I hope the rest of you Dec. 23rd people are as lucky as me.

Home too for Christmas Eve ☺️So glad that part is done and the next part of the journey can begin. Happy holidays to all!

I'm still in the hospital. I should go home in a couple of hours. ????????????☺ I feel great. I was started on clear liquids. Now I'm sipping on my protein sake like nothing. Time to go home.
