May surgery

[amisoup 9]

I’m May 15! Getting SO EXCITED but totally over this full liquid diet [emoji849]. I feel like I “ate” too much today but it was 3 shakes, 2 cups of broth, 2 Decaf herbal teas, a cup of SF pudding and popsicles. And roughly 60 gallons of water... (not really but you get the idea).

Is anyone able to drink caffeine right now? I am a caffeine ADDICT and the headaches and withdrawals are not for the faint of heart. [emoji30]

I haven't had caffeine in 3 months. I feel your pain. Not much longer.

Moved my surgery up to May 15th. Been on liquid diet since 4/24. Down 18 pounds so far. liquid diet is HARD but we can do this!!!!

I can’t believe you will have been doing liquids only for almost 3 weeks prior to surgery. How are you overcoming the salt cravings? Good luck surgery buddy, I’m May 15th VSG as well.

May 22nd, don't have to start pre-op diet till the 12th but have already kind of started trying to get in the right frame of mind.. no caffeine has been rough, also have tried to eliminate all processed foods and only eating Protein and veggies.

WOOHOO... good for you !!! My pre op appointment is May 2 .... surgery on the 7th.
Im very excited , but a little nervous. I start The liquid diet on Monday. Some say it’s easy others say .... not so much [emoji17]. I think A lot of that diet for the patient is phycological. Hope it’s not to bad .
How are you feeling about everything ?

How are you feeling post surgery?? Yay!

I'm new here too. My surgery is scheduled for May 21st. Nervous and excited! Anyone else from Vegas?

How many days are we supposed to be on only liquids pre op? I saw my surgeon on the 2nd and he didn't say anything about it. I only have one more Dr. visit before surgery and that's 7day before.

I was on liquids for only a day before surgery... call your Doctor so you feel confident. I don’t blame you for not remembering, my pre op appt was a blur of info afterward.
