I am having surgery Thursday, live in WV, have a daughter named Katie and my name is Jen! We have a lot in common on the surface!

We sure do!! My name's Mandy, I'll be having surgery Friday in Houston! I think I might be getting the sleeve though. Last I spoke to my surgeon, he told me to think about switching since I'm currently low in iron.

I'm having surgery on Wednesday February 15th in Northern California. My program didn't require a liquid diet. So I'm lucky.

Yep we sure do JTaskah. What time is your surgery??

I won't get the time until Wednesday after 5:00. I go Wednesday to sign consent forms. Read them over- it is pretty scary but I feel like it is what I need to do. What time do you guys go?

I am having my bypass Tues 2/21.

I had mine 2/16 struggled the first 3 days doing much better today

I struggled too. And I am still having trouble getting all liquid down

I threw up this morning after taking a potassium ground up into a spoon full of sugar free chocolate pudding. Sitting here hoping I did not do any damage to my stomach. I am not going to re-take it, I will wait until my next dose and try again. I see the doctor tomorrow for a follow up. Hope things are improving for you. My nutritionist said it would be difficult reaching the Water and the Protein goals and not to worry too much just keep sipping!

I drank about 40oz today that and some broth maybe a spoonful of jello literally no more

Saw my surgeon for follow up appointment. The requirements are nearly impossible to meet the first few weeks. His advice was stay hydrated, take all of your prescriptions and try getting your Protein. Do the best you can but don't worry. It gets better. How are you feeling? I am more hopeful. Still some discomfort but better each day. Hope you are well!
