I’m not showing anything before surgery regarding only after in my pamphlet. However, I would avoid it two weeks before surgery. I’ve read that some patients have to do a twice week liquid and some like me have as little as 24hrs.

I just brought my toddler plate and utensil set for when I start foods. I don’t know how to eat in smaller portions to be totally honest. I’ve been practicing. The struggle is real but so worth it.

Surgery date June 14th ❤️

Regarding caffeine, I believe it really depends on your surgeon and program. I don't have to avoid it, but I should limit my intake to 1-2 cups a day (including tea). Since I have a 2-week liquid diet where I am not allowed anything else beside veggies, I will most definetely keep my morning coffee for the sake of my sanity :)

I used to take those diet pill with caffeine, but I stopped about a month ago. I stopped coffee last week, and I did go through the withdrawals. Just with the liquid diet some caffeine would help to get things going.

Who has started their pre-op/liquid diet ? How is it going ? How are you holding up ?

I started yesterday, well I kinda started last week but not as serious because was a bonus week I decided to do. On my pre op diet I am allowed 1 lean meal per day. A small salad with 3oz of lean Protein, which makes so much easier. I tried to do only liquids last week and was much difficult. It feels good I am loosing weight and I feel more energized. The energized part I will attribute to a psychological effect... hahhaha

I am glad to know you have more energy ! This is one of my worry. I must admit the liquid diet is what scares me the most in this process. I just started this morning but so far it is going fine. I admire you to have started early :)

Thank you, I believe that practice is key, I think studies show that it takes around 21 days of frequent behavior to create a habit. Might as well try to apply that to eating habits.

Hi! I have a tentative June 12 surgery, pending insurance approval. I’m so looking forward to this! The only thing that has me stressed is being able to get back to work as soon as possible. I am self-employed as an upholsterer and a single parent so I need to jump back in the saddle and keep those endless bills in check. Since I work at home, I’m thinking to ease back into work once my pain is manageable, maybe in a week or so. My teenage son is going to help with the lifting, so I can do the rest of the work. Anybody else going back to a physically demanding job? Any tips?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
