Nicole - I just love your profile pic, I was a barbie freak when I was little. What girl did not want to look just like her.

I am amazed at how fast your date is coming up. Good luck, I will be going in for my ekg and bloodwork that day to get my all clear.

Hang in there and I hope to see photos soon....

Topic: Can't believe date is coming in a few weeks.

Hello,
   I am finding myself in disbelief that Oct. 27th is almost here. No longer is this an abstract thought. Now it is a reality. I have gotten my insurance approval and I met my pre-op weight loss goal so all that is left is to wait till that date. I have to say I am getting more and more nervous as the days go by. Hoping that all goes well and this time next year I will be much healthier and happier.

Topic: RE: Need help - liquid diet is making me sick and I don't know what to do

I have my surgery on Oct. 26 and my Dr. wants us to do 14 day diet as well.  The first 13 days which will start on Oct. 12th will be replacing meals with the protein drinks and I can eat raw or steamed vegetables.  I can also drink crystal light sugar-free, sugar free jello (which I hate), decaf herbal tea or chcken or beef broth or bouillon.  On day 14 I switch to complete liquids wht nothing else.  I have started replacing one meal with a protein shake to get myself use to it.  The shakes are not that bad, and I hope that when it is time for me to do it before the surgery I will continue to do it esp. since all my meals are to be replace with the protein.  That last day I believe I will be so nervous I would not notice if I can not eat anything (just drink.) 

Just hang in there.  You are at the end and this should not be something that will make you not what to live a healtier life. When we all look back at this it will not seem as hard as it seems now.  You CAN DO IT.

Thanks for your advice!  Best wishes to you for a quick and speedy recovery.

It's difficult to take in more than 400 calories on a clear liquid diet.

My surgery date is Oct. 15 as well...My doctor put me on a 2 week pre-surgery liquid diet. This is going to be a challenge in it's self. Good Luck with your date and your upcoming surgery.
