One day at a time...that's what I'll be telling myself too. 😊 You can do this.

Best of luck! I start tomorrow:wacko:

It is happening. It is such a mixture of anticipation and nerves. It is all positive, but when I look at my liquid diet all set up for the day, it is a bit scary.

Nerves are definitely heightened. I noticed every fast food place while driving and saw a million tasty videos on Facebook lol

Hi , praying for your success; each day will get easier. I have to make this same journey at the end of May been preparing since February. Take care and don't even think about it being long days; your reward is ahead of you.

Hi, I know it may be a bit scary, but as you said it is all positive. Take care It is going to be fine. My support from my grandkids helps me a lot with the liquids and staying on track with small meals. My surgery is in June. Praying for a successful journey for you Melena68

Stay hydrated and you should be fine, I'm on I believe day 12 of mine. I was also allowed to eat certain vegetables so when I felt a little hungry I ate them.

      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!!
