I'm not sure what you are allowed, but I was allowed a daily cup of strained, low-fat cream Soup, like Healthy Choice. I don't normally eat this kind of Soup (and actually thought it sounded gross), but I found it helped me feel fuller, and the texture and warmth were helpful, too. Because I don't normally eat this kind of soup, it didn't trigger any cravings, like for Ritz crackers!

I can't even have veggies @@mom2madison I think it's because my surgery is the 15. Lemon Water has become my best friend.

AUGUST 15th? You can do this!! TWO DAYS and you'll be restarting your life, finding a whole new package for the you that lives inside! Keep drinking your no-calorie liquids. Have you tried the no-sugar, no-cal MiO drops to add to Water, or the "drink-sticks", so you get a variety of flavors? And don't forget the sugar free popsicles and sugar free jello! These were both allowed on my all-liquid diet and it sure felt good to have something to chew!!

Hang tough!! You can do this!!

Yeah I been having my Popsicle. I didn't even think of the mio mix. The only thing that sucks is limited energy with a two year old. We are staying home this weekend. I know I got this the light of the tunnel is almost here. Thanks for the suggestion. I forgot about those @leebick.

Well done !!!

I know it sucks, but it'll be a breeze once you are post-op.

The pre-op diet is all about you taking action to ensure your safety during the surgery. It's a great way to flex your willpower muscles. You can do it. Enjoy the amplified rate of weight loss you'll be seeing near the end of this 14 days. It's awesome.

Just wait.....those other muscles will be emerging in the months ahead as you burn off the unwanted fat.

It gets much, much easier. You are just having to do the hardest part now.....at the beginning.

Stick with it and have no regrets. You'll feel better on the day of your surgery, I promise. You'll bebop in there ready to rock 'n roll and be highly confident knowing the you've done your part.

Keep flexing those willpower muscles and profit from this.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
