Just got my date 12/3. A little sad to be on a preop diet for Thanksgiving but we gotta do what we gotta do.

I'll have to try it. My last dinner attempt was a fail so I ended up eating some air-fried Brussel sprouts with balsamic glaze. Have you weighed yourself today? It's a week out from our surgery. I lost 9 lbs so far.

I did weigh myself, only down .3 today, but still down. I’ve also lost 9lbs since starting my shakes. I think it’s the water weight.

I have never lost 9 lbs. in a week so I'll take. Any loss is a plus. Wishing you a successful 2nd week!

I know what you mean! Never have I ever lost this much in a week. And what’s crazy is I’m not even hungry!

Yesterday was surgery for me!! Dealt with a lot of nausea and gas pains last night. Today I’m just sore and ready to go home!!

Thank you. I hope so. Today was better, but I still don’t feel like drinking anything. I hope this passes soon

Have you thought about putting something into your drinks to make it a little more appealing?

Before I was able to be discharged, my surgeon made me drink 1 oz over 30 minutes, walk and urinate, and drink 1 ox over 10 minutes for an hour at a time (60oz at 1 oz every 10 minutes). It was not pleasant, but 10 days post I am progressing very well.

My surgery is scheduled for 12/28. I’m on pre op for three weeks and doing great. But there is a chance that COVID numbers will delay my surgery due to hospital needs. I’m praying it doesn’t.

I got my surgery date! 12/30! I start my liquid diet on 12/16! YAY!

I wish this was me

December 2nd here! Hubby and I are doing a mini Thanksgiving the day before the 2 week pre op diet starts so I won't miss out. [emoji4] Christmas is going be be a whooooole new experience though! [emoji318][emoji1762][emoji319][emoji301]

I had mine 12/2 as well. The pain is gone, a little discomfort when standing after sitting for a while. I can sleep on both sides and experiments with pudding and cream of mushroom strained soup yesterday. Both went down, although the stomach was making the moaning and groaning sounds, but no side affects. What are you guys doing for meals?
