I have been on my liquid diet for a week now. It's not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I'm amazed that I haven't been tempted to cheat! Are you on yours? You will do great!

I'm doing Boost Calorie Smart - Chocolate. It's the best that I've had and approved by my nutritionist. I bought stuff from them and I just don't like it.

Hey guys quick question, I'm scheduled for tues may 5th had my last pre-op appointment and all my paper work is done I have been on a two week liquid diet but I am going to a concert Saturday night, do you think if I have a few drinks it will matter?

My surgery is scheduled for May 8th! I'm on day 3 of my liquid diet. I feel like these will be the longest 2 weeks of my life. LOL

I think my biggest fear is the skin. I don't want to look horrible. :-(

Good luck with your surgery! It's going to be a big month.
