Welcome to the site. I find it to extremely helpful as I've scanned older posts and the new ones. My surgery is Tuesday and I'm on the pre-op diet.

Thank you. I’m doing fine. I do Clear Liquids and liquids. Meaning 10 days out I am eating cottage cheese soft cheese apple sauce and scrambled eggs. Lol not sure I should be eating soft foods yet guess Dr will tell me on Tuesday when I see him. I have lost 19 pounds since surgery.

I am two weeks out from surgery and I’m still having a hard time getting all my Protein and liquids in. My weight loss was pretty rapid the first week and now it has really slowed down I think I’m only losing like .4 or .7 or .5 a day now is this normal?

Hi everyone. I had surgery Wednesday July 31 2019 and today is Saturday August 2 2019. I’m on liquids only and I’m so hungry! I am drinking tons of different liquids including Protein Shakes. Is it normal to be this hungry so early in the process?

Hi, I had mine July 31 too. I'm still sipping caffeine-free tea and it takes me all day to do a Protein Drink. I like the Outlast pop cycles without sugar added. You need to realize you don't have to eat every time your tummy rumbles or if you feel hungry. Things are trying to settle out. I sip things slowly and that usually quiet the beast. I am looking forward to Tuesday when I can have full liquids, but again I'll be careful not to add a lot of calories. This is the time you drop a lot of weight. I also find taking all that medicine to be filling as I hate the taste. Good luck and keep in touch.
