I am glad to hear your surgery went well and you're doing well. I will be joining you on the other side tomorrow. lol keep us posted. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Good luck today!! You're gonna do amazing! Recovery has been a process but it's all worth it in the end!

Well I had my surgery today at 7:30. The doctor said it went amazing and I'm telling you the pain is barely existent. I started drinking Clear Liquids around 4 o'clock today and I've been walking a lot which definitely helps with the pain. The only downfall is how extremely dry and mouth is been LOL. I guess it's a small price to pay

September 19 is my surgery date and I am so nervous that I can not sleep. I am ready for this change in my life cause I have three very active young girls to keep up with but I believe because this is my first surgery ever is why I am so nervous. I put on some weight right before my pre-op diet but now that I am "dieting" it is coming off slowly. Congrats to you for taking this step to make your life better and excited to be a friend during our looser path LOVE IT!

Hey everyone I am day 1 post op. In a lot of pain but was expected anyway. I am doing well up and about and being discharged today. Learning how to eat and drink differently from the dieticians meeting. Had Soup today only few mouthfuls and was full. Cannot wait to see how different I look in a few months.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me and others really appreciate it.

I know you'll be fine. Just keep your focus and understand how much easier it makes it for your surgeon to do their tasks. I'm on day 12 of the 2-week liquid diet and find that it is fine for me, although it amazes my wife. A steady pattern of Premier Protein, 8 oz of apple juice, sugar-free Gelatin, sugar-free popsicles, Crystal Light, Green Tea and Decaf coffee. I've found it very helpful to create an input form on Google Docs that automatically populates to a Google Spreadsheet to record all calorie and Protein information. It is simple to set-up and can be used to monitor your progress and intake from beginning throughout the months and years to come.

Hiya

It is hard first 3 days are the worst then you just get over it and do it. I was soo focused and dedicated to dropping the most amount of weight. I lost 15lbs on the pre op diet. And I had my surgery 2 days ago RNY Bypass i am Very very sore and in so much pain but the pre op diet helps you wean off food so you can tolerate small amounts. I don't even get hungry anymore so keep going and keep your eyes on the prize. Good luck

Hello! I am on day 7 of 2 week liquid diet. Surgery scheduled for Sept 27.

I am having an oddly easy time of this. My shakes etc are from BetterMD and taste great. (My clinic reqires the use of BetterMD kit).

Paranoid, I am waiting for the other shoe to drop lol

I am reqired to have 5 Shakes/smoothies/soups per day, all made with skim milk, plus one broth that is a Fiber supplement. I may also have 2 cups of raw veggies, selected from a very short list.

I make most of my shakes with frozen milk, so they are like icecream and really very good. I doctor up the Soups and broths with approved herbs and spices.

My Husband thinks its funny i spend nearly as much time fiddling with them as i would regular cooking! (He exagerates lol)

I am 75% fine 20% nervously excited 5% randomly scared throughout the day.

How's everyone else doing today?

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
