If this makes you feel better - I think the preop diet is so much worse than postop. I have so much more will power after surgery. It makes it so much easier!

Agreed, near the end of the 2 week liquid diet I was so miserable but it's so much better after the surgery. Good luck!

Thanks for the heads up Ladies...I don't really know what to expect before or after surgery....The restricted dieting is such a mental thing....as long as I stay busy..I don't think of chewing!

I just want to say that I hate all you 2 week liquid dieters.

- a 12-week liquid dieter

Why 12 weeks? That's cruel and unusual punishment!

My surgeon is a poopie head. B)

It's funny because I just saw him for a 4 week followup from start of liquid diet and he even admitted I was ready for surgery. We went over my weight loss, my liver function results (normalized liver function tests after 2 yrs of high/dangerously high), my HBA1c drop (from 6.1 to 5.7 -- 1 yr ago was 7.9), etc.

Guess they didn't believe I'd follow the premise of the diet and not lose weight. Oh well. Good news is it's post-semester (due to them moving my finals for me closer by a week) so.. not gonna interfere with a lot.

Just hope I'm not as tired post-op as I was at the start of the liquid diet. I feel like running around.

      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.

      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!!
