Tomorrow I go on the 3 day, clear liquid diet, before my Surgery on Wednesday. Man, the nerves are REALLY kicking in! Every time I think about it, I get butterflies.
Can you guys please just give me a little support and encouragement that I can wake up to tomorrow morning? Maybe it won't be so bad if I can look at the things you've said from time to time when it gets hard.

Girl if I could somehow manage to do this crazy thing and live this crazy life, you can too! You're ready for this, and this sounds schmutzy but I believe what you put out into the universe comes back to you. And you're putting out determination and readiness for a whole new awesome life. So be awesome. :)

You will do great! And good luck. You can make it for three days. I have been on it a week took one day off and now i am back in it for two more weeks. So you will breeze right through three days. Trust me, I did it and I thought I couldn't and was very surprised when I did it and didn't feel actual hunger. Just stick to a schedule and drink those shakes they do fill you up along with the Fiber. Good luck.

Wait. I can have Protein drinks? My books says all I can have is Water, Jello, popsicles, and broth! It wouldn't be so bad if I could have Protein drinks!

Hi! Well that's what's on my liquid diet. You should call your team or whoever is your nurse at your center and ask. It may be different but those Protein drinks won't hurt your weight loss diet or liver shrink diet.

Clear liquid diet does not include Protein shakes. This means you must be able to "see" through the liquids which include broth and Jello. The Preop liquid diet that is anywhere from 1-3 weeks depending on your BMI does include Protein drinks.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
