I am in day three of my two week pre-op liquid diet. Today it doesn't seem quite as bad. Yesterday was horrible. My RNY surgery is scheduled for August 31. Anyone else having surgery in Western North Carolina?

I am scheduled for Monday, August 24. I am on day 2 of a five day clear liquid diet. I'm not so much hungry, but I am kind of weak. I have been making and drinking homemade broths. I see a lot of you have Protein included in your diet - my Dr. said nothing about protein only Clear Liquids and I have been wondering about not getting enough protein. I am very nervous and excited (at the same time) about the surgery. My Mother had a revision from the Sleeve to Rny n April and had several complications - she is still not feeling up to par. So, all those complications are in the back of my head and making me anxious. Btw, I am in Pittsburgh.

I start my pre-op liquid diet on Sunday. I too am only allowed liquids. No protein, etc. I'm a bit nervous about the liquids only, and I'm sure I will have little to no energy, but that's going to be about the same after surgery. Good luck with everything! Please feel free to message me, and definitely keep us all posted on your progress!

I'm 4 days post-op. You are all going to do fantastic.

I am scheduled on the 27th. So excited I can barely stand it. I am 1 week into my 2 week 800 calorie high Protein diet and seem to be doing ok although I do seem to be more tired than usual. One more week Can we speed up the clocks?
