January 7th is coming up... I am ready for my life changes. I've been doing great on my pre-op diet... anyone else having theirs on the 7th?

I got to take a shower and get into my Jammies and Ruby slippers. Other than the big port...pain is completely tolerable

My pain wasn't as bad the day of surgery as it was the first day after. The pain was almost unbearable. I'm not able to get any protein in at all. But Dr says just to focus on fluid for now, and to try protein again tomorrow.

1 week post op & I'm down 23 lbs since beginning the pre-op diet & down 8 lbs since surgery!!

that's my first "stats" post lol. I'm doing pretty well. I'm not getting my full 64 oz of fluid in but I get so close. I don't think I'm getting all of my protein in either but during this 1st week my Dr wanted me to focus more on fluids so starting tomorrow I'm going to really focus on trying to get as much of both as I can. Today was an odd day for "eating" for me. Things would sound good until I tried them then I didn't want them. I'm still on shakes & soups mostly but have tried some pureed things & so far there's no physical problems with them, I just really don't want to eat I think. I'm in very little pain, more like soreness & discomfort lol. Its all very tolerable though. I just took some adult liquid Tylenol & mainly took it so that I will sleep good tonight. I'm also having a cup of sleepy time herbal tea so hopefully I'll relax good tonight.

Day 12 of 16... still going strong... 12.6 pounds lost... just checking in... how are you guys doing?

How are you?
