Last night my resolve on this liquid diet stage started to falter. I kept thinking something mushy wont hurt. Then would wander in the kitchen to see what I could whip up. Thank goodness the only thing in there is the kids stuff and stuff for a liquid diet right now. So I pulled out all my spices, grabbed some of the nasty chicken broth powder stuff (salt free/gluten free) and made me an impromptu egg drop Soup with one egg white.

I gotta say, oh man what a treat!! I am such a good cook. AND AND AND it kept me on my liquid diet phase with out cheating or harming myself.

Granted I knew at one point or another (and it might happen again, hope not but it is possible) my resolve would start to waver, but I didn't give in. Today I am back on track, no wavering resolve, just the desire to keep on truckin.

Way to go Pix. That must have been difficult, but you passed through the hurdle. I started my pre-op diet yesterday and so far so good. I know, though, that I'll be faced with what happened to you last night. The trick is to not have anything in the house that can make a slip-up easy. I need to clean cupboards, lol. Anyway, good luck and good job - Brenda

:thumbup:Oh Pix I am so proud of you. The liquid stage is the hardest so if you can get through I know that everything else will be a snap for you.

You go girl.

Excellent Pix...you're 'can do' attitude will be a big help to your success! Sadly, this won't be the only time you will need to 'push through'...but you CAN do it.

Way to go!!:cry_smile:

All I know is that on the 24th (the day I go to the next phase) I am going to have me one nice soft scrambled egg some blended salsa (to chunky at this stage so the blender gets it) and a small dab of provolone dolce (sweet provolone instead of the standard sharp) cheese (sadly can't get this like cheddar made with 2% milk that is why the small dab).

hehe I am good at thinking ahead, it is giving me something to look forward too. LOL

      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...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
