On day 13 of liquid diet, only 6-ish more to go!! Not doing too bad. Down 14lbs on liquids for a total of 95lbs pre-op,Doing  6 High Protein Ensure a day, and 4cups of clear fluids. They seem to be pretty filling, haven't had much hunger. Was hard having company and having to cook for them, but sucked it up.. and got through. VSG scheduled for April 19. Cannot wait to get it over with and get on with my life. I keep the clear broth for supper time and have 2-3 cups of soup broth so i get a feeling of something hot with a taste of food. sometimes i go over the 4 cups and might have a cup of black coffee in the morning, and  water bottle of crystal light in the afternoon. but i don't beat myself up over it!  Just gonna keep on keepin! :)

Welcome and good luck to you!!!

All my best wishes to her and everyone who's had surgery...

Sounds like some very positive experiences.. just what I wanted to hear, since I'm a week away from my own.

Welcome and congrats on your surgery.  I have the RNY scheduled for the 20th.  I've been on liquids since the 6th and it's not that bad, although I've posted a few frustrations over the past few days.

I'm up in the Seattle area - keep in touch and best of luck with your surgery!

LOL  I am laughing reading everyone's posts b/c it's so nice to see that there is someone else in the world going through what I am!  UGH!  It's miserable!  Ive been on liquid diet since 4/7... Surgery is on 4/21. 

I have found that if I "eat" every 2 hours - and drink my waters in between; Im ok.  If I get off track, Im the devil.  I have an assortment of sugarfree gum... and I never thought chicken broth would be so yummy after a day of protein shakes and sf applesauce.  :P

You can do it!  You ARE doing it!  :)
