THANk GOODNESS! I'm message you!! And I've been thinking I'd do the same. Mine is only 1 weeks so I'm gonna ease myself into it but slowly adding one meal in every week that's liquid only. So this week, Breakfast is my liquid next week, breakfast and lunch!

Please include me as your buddies!! My RNY is scheduled for May 18th in Chicago. I started easing into my liquid diet also & lost 16lbs in a month. I started with a hp shake for breakfast & 2 lean meals per day. After 1 week, I went to 2 hp shakes & 1 meal.

My pre-op consult was pushed out to May 9th. Looking at a surgery the week of May 22nd, but won't know for sure until the 9th.
I was so disheartened this morning when I couldn't go to my consult today. I literal got ill from it. I ended up sleeping most of the afternoon, but I didn't turn to food. Now I have resigned myself to it and I am wondering who will be having sleeves then too.

What a bummer! I'm glad you have a date but it would be hard to have things change on you last minute. Best of luck!

It is, but now I can see that basically crap happens all the time. How we handle it has to change now instead of turning to food. Thank you for the support. It's wonderful to have people who also share this journey.

Mine was switched from 4/12/16 to 5/17/17 because my Insurance took so long to approve me. I was upset at first then I realized that I'm still approved and my journey will continue.

My surgery is May 1st. On day 7 of the pre op liquid diet. I am excited and terrified all at once! Ive never had surgery of any kind before so pretty freaked out.

How's the liquid diet going? I start mine Monday.

      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! 😞
