June 26th!!!!

 I am dying on my liquid diet.  My headaches are not going away and I can not concentrate. lol How is everyone else doing on their pre-op diet?

 Me not so good I am on edge and am sick of protein shakes

I was having really bad headaches on the pre-op liquids as well, when i went in for my pre-op appt the nurse said I could have 3-5 crackers with a little bit of chicken a day to help with the carb withdrawl. She seemed more conserned that I was getting enough protien and staying under 130g of carbs then the fact that everything was liquid.

Might be worth calling your MD and see if they say the same thing.

Hi Everyone Cant wait for surgery on the 26th are ya'll ready??? Lets do this!!!!

 Hi! I had my surgery June 26th and today is the first day I am pain free and able to stay awake for a few hours at a time. I had horrible pain post op and none of the narcotic pain meds helped. Finally I got the Ok to take Motrin and I felt better in 10 min. I love Motrin! I am just waiting for next week to start the puree diet b/c I am so sick of the full liquid diet already!  How are you doing?

I'm totally with you! So sick of it, but will be over very soon! I keep looking at the pre/post pics on the homepage for motivation!
