The July 6th club

Can I join too?  I started a 4 week Optifast diet before my July 6th surgery date.  They say the first three days are the hardest and of course they have to start me on a Friday so I am struggling over the weekend.  I am about to eat my fingers but I am toughening it out!  Should be easier on Monday.  Keeping my eye on the prize!

I'm starting the rest of my life on July 6th!  Can't wait.  Just started a liquid low carb, high protein diet today.  As with the rest of you, can't wait!

I'm a 7/6'er.  I too have to start the protein liquids on Monday and am not really looking forward to it, but it is a small price to pay for the benefits.  I'm glad I found some kindred spirits.

I am RNY 7-6! I start my two week no carb diet on Monday.

Okay ladies...we only have 11 days to wait now...keep up the good work....I have to be at the hospital at 5:30 am on the 6th...good god...I am for sure bringing my cell phone to the hospital...so I can text....we should exchange numbers ladies...we can all be in pain at the same time...lol

Hello everyone! I just found this web site, so I'm having a ball reading up on everyone's thoughts. I'm on 7/6 as well, at 10 a.m. Been doing a high-protein low-carb diet for 3 weeks now, going to clear liquids 2 days before surgery. Every morning say to yourself "After surgery I will wake up feeling great" - I'm told it works to keep the pain down
