Hi all, I'm eating literally everything in my house the past few days so I'm not tempted when I start my 2 week liquids. Probably not the best idea, I know. Come tomorrow, it will be protein shakes and broth. Yum. Any one else with July surgery coming up? I'd love to chat on kik!

Started today... Surgery 7/24..so far so good..!

Surgery 7/30

Will start diet 7/23. Like you, I have been eating everything I can get my hands on!

I start my liquid diet tomorrow also! Surgery date is 7/18! I'm a little emotional to say the least. I am going to miss food.

I start my liquid diet the week of the 7th surgery day is aug 14

I'm 6 1/2 months out- down 55 lbs. I still eat everything, just in much smaller portions. So don't eat everything that isn't nailed down ladies! Breathe! Life is great on the other side. Good luck!

I start mine on the 14th, surgery is the 28th.

I started my liquid diet 11 years ago to date. Within the year of 2005/2006 I weighed 289 lbs on Morning of surgery. At the 1. 1/2 yr mark after surgery I had lost 135 pounds. I am in my 11th yr and gained back 25 in 11 years. I am actually starting the liquid diet for three days then moving to soup with possibly carrots and fat free jello and pudding. Those 25 pounds MUST go.

Ladies and gents I wish you the very best on your weight loss surgery. Feel free to email me at rosemary.landry@yahoo.com. I promise to listen and try to answer any questions. You are all in my prayers as God is taking us on a new journey in life. Good Luck. Rosie. Belle of the South

I'm post-op but my best piece of advice is to keep busy. Idle mind and hands seek snacks. Best of luck!!

I had my surgery 6/21/17. During my pre-op diet I had one protein shake in the morning with my vitamins one protein shake for lunch and a lean dinner. Also, keep your mind busy and keep productive, you should be fine. I'm now finishing my phase one and tomorrow going to a nutrition class and transitioning to phase two. I'm excited to finally have some kind of soft foods. Anyhow, I wish you the best of luck on your new journey, and New Life.

Wait... 11 years.. that would make you the longest person since sleeve surgery that I know.... pretty impressive. has anything changed over the years (other than putting back on a little) .. or is it much the same ?

My surgery date is 7/25 also! I start my liquid diet 2 days before but start my pre-op diet today.

Hi thanks alot for sharing. I think we're all kind of a little scared. Your post gave me a small but good window in to next few weeks. Congrats to you on your surgery and weight loss so far.
