Kathy, I'm finishing up day five and it hasn't been too bad. I've gotten a little light headed at times, but after the first day, I wasn't really hungry. My surgery is on the 21st of April, so I will be on a liquid diet about 2 weeks. I'm losing weight! I think I've lost about 8 pounds already. I don't do well with sugar free stuff, so I am having a half a cup of low sodium V-8, which is good, and taking the protein powder (EAS Whey) with milk. Tonight for supper is was cream of chicken soup (strained). It was deli****hink this pre-surgery diet gears you up for being able to eat small amounts and the clear liquids. At least I'm hoping so. Good luck!

Thank you so much for the info , I am going through tricare with the military so hopefully it wont be to hard to get all this done, I appreciate you taking the time to write me, michelle

I am excited and nervous too. I have cleaned my house top to bottom and cleaned my car too, just looking for something to do to keep my mind and hands busy. Just 2.5 more days. What time do you go into the hospital? yes I would like that, we should keep in touch. Rahsheeda

Congrats on the weight loss. You are right - it will go fast. I've waited since 2004 - what's 6 more months? Good luck w/ your surgery.
