So I've been battling obesity for a very long time. One day I seen my doctor paperwork say 'morbid obesity' and diagnosed as prediabetic I knew something had to change. So through research I learned that my insurance paid for gastric sleeve. So weighing in at my highest 260 I began my six month nutrition classes. So far I've lost 20lbs which was what I was required to lose on my own to qualify. August the 5th is my preop class and august the 17th is my surgery date. I'm alittle nervous but mostly excited. I began my liquid diet on August 3rd, what a journey that'll be. I'll be getting my surgery in Washington DC at the age of 28. Inbox with any questions.

That's soo cool!

I will start next Tuesday (August 9th)- only protein shakes with water+diet drinks. Seems a bit extreme to me. What about you?

Same here, this liquid diet will be kinda difficult for me. But it will be all worth it. I began mines in 2 days.

So this week I'll began taking pics maybe about every 4 days. This journey will be something to remember.

I will ask my sister to take some pics before surgery. I already lost 3 kg when I stopped eating sugar/junk after seeing my surgeon, so I'm pretty optimistic.

I wonder if they will allow me to spray myself with this. Seems like a lot of people are dealing with dry mouth after the surgery.

And how are you feeling? Excited? Scared?

I'm scared that I will lost all of my figure once I lose the weight. But I'm excited to finally weight less, and SHOP!!

Omg, this liquid diet is becoming tougher and tougher. Now that I'm only 3 days away from surgery I have gotten so bored with the Water and Protein drinks. It didn't help I came on my monthly too. Wooo girl.... The only thing I done had was a peppermint but I spit it out. I jitsu needed some flava.

I'm day 6 and actually I'm drinking one shake a day instead of 3 and doing ok. Try drinking some low fat low sodium broth and drink a lot of water. After 3 days I actually stopped missing food. Hang in there!
