Good for you!! How far along are you into the liquid diet? I'm on day 5 today (voluntarily decided to start my liquid diet early). It's going ok. The first 3 days were horrible, but I got through my carb cravings. The problem now is I'm craving fat so hard! I cleaned out my kitchen, so I'm just gonna power through it.

Congrats on the loss :)

Great job! You are ready!


I'm on day 5 liquid pre op and I am so nauseous in the morning I can't even smell the protein drink! Anyone else feel that way? Thinking I should do broth in the mornings ?


I am on Day 5 and am down 5lbs not to bad!

@luvinbeachlife, I switch it up, I do skim milk with biochem powder in it mornings on some days, and Trader Joe's chicken broth with bio chem powder powder other days.

I tend to eat a small price of fruit. I made sugar free jell-o. I drink tons of water. Tonight I'll do carbonated water to give me a little joy lol. We'll see what that does. Tomorrow I have a meal. Then Sunday right back to it.

I tend to drop weight fast, like a guy lol. So the meal will help once a week. I have several weeks to go until the 23. I will have one more meal the second Saturday, a salad with vinegar dressing. Then just back to preop and clear liquids two days before. I'm very ready!

You can do it, hang in there!

But I'll add, it's kicking my ass. I'm tired!


I had no energy before I started to do to my pre opt diet because of my Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. Now my energy level is really none existent, it's hard to get out of bed. I think I am going to wait to get on the scale until a week or 2 after surgery. Congrats All on the weight loss already!:)

Wishing you the best. It sounds like a bumpy ride for you currently, but I think this surgery will make you feel better in the long run. Keeping you in my thoughts. You got this!
