@@scubav85 I'm not sure, I still need to update on my weight, I lost 8 lbs before surgery & the day of surgery I was 230 starting from 238. I haven't weighed yet, decided to wait until my 2 week check in!

Yes I am and I struggle everyday with it.

Me too. It's really crazy. I've cheated several times (to say the least) but now I got to stick to it. Only have a few days and want everything to go great. However, I am worried about being able to stick to the post-opt since I had so much trouble with the pre-op.

19 days left till surgery. Yayy.

I am on day two of pre-op liquid diet - rough stuff! the nutritionist wants me to get in 1,000 calories - how do you do that?? Yesterday, I think I got in about 550. I am drinking 2 premier shakes and had some Soup - - and of course, 64 oz Water.

I start that tomorrow. I haven't really figured out a game plan for this. I don't like the flavor of any protein shakes I've tried so far, too sweet and weird texture. I bought some unflavored protein to put in various flavored broths to try and get through it. I might have to suck it up in the name of health.

Today is my mom's 70th bday party with food food and more food. This is going to be tough because I haven't told too many people about the nature of my surgery. They know I'm having something done. Wish me luck.

Mines 10/13, so nervous!

Tomorrow I do my liquid diet and find out what time my surgery will be on Tuesday. What should I take with me to hospital so I can be ready?

@@sleevemylife I took way too much to the hospital. I ended up wearing the gown they give you in the hospital, & wearing what I wore in to the hospital to go home in. My pull on jeans that doesn't have elastic in the front only in the back felt the most comfortable then my sweats that had elastic all the way around. I didn't need the lip balm till I got home, nor did I nead the biotene spray for dry mouth. I just needed my toothbrush & toothpaste, hairbrush, glasses, extra pair of underwear. They gave me socks to walk in. Your home so soon so not much need for much.

I wasn't told to take anything. Just to not eat ANY solids. Just liquids for two days before surgery. So I can't eat any protein bars, celery, or cucumbers (my two "freebies") during those 2 days. I'm so nervous that I may not even notice the lack of food. Anxiety is really kicking in. Surgery is October 15th.

My day is also Oct 15 and I'm way nervous. Not only for surgery,but because I ate the wrong kind of food today. I ate too much but not as much as I could have. So for the next 3 days it can only be 3 shakes a day.

@@kvoneye you are not alone. I did the same thing I think our mind is telling us that it will be a while before we can have some of the food we love, so it's trying to take control over us. My psychologist said the mind is like a 5-year old crying and acting out because it doesn't like the change we have to make I eating habits. I'm struggling.

I bought suger free popcicles tonight to help me get thru rest of week. I'll do 3 shakes a day with fluids and popcicles in between. 1pm Thursday can't come quick enough.

Mine is at 10:30am Thursday. I have the sugar free Popsicles too. But unfortunately for me it's not taking away my desire to eat real food. I'm all in now so I can't look back. Let's go strong for the next 3 days and we will be happy when it's over with. I can't even sleep I'm so nervous about this surgery.
