Topic: 2 week liquid diet
So I'm having my sleeve surgery on August 20th so I'm on my 2 week liquid diet and I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. I'm only taken in about 1000 cal. and about 60g protein. I have been light headed for the last 12 hours. Can anyone tell me what else I could do?
Thank Sharon

I will certainly be there on the next support group. Now that at that time I will be on the loser's bench I could certainly use some healthy support!
Tuesday is the biggest day for me, Surgery Day!

At the meeting in Bangor Friday night...
Hope when the summer is over, and we're deep into fall, we start to see some of the familiar faces again...hard to do, when you want to make the most of the summer!

Hi all i am having a pannilectomy on August 7 in waterville with Dr Schassberger.
I will be in over nite. and yes my insurance is covering it for medical reasons.
I do know that i will be sore for a few weeks but everyone i have talked to say that they are pleased that they did it.
It is not a full tummy tuck it is the lower. and yes i probably will lose my belly button. but if that means a little more tissue that can be removed then it will be ok.
I have been so blessed that i have not had any bad side effects and that i am healthy again
now to get me back to exercising after this surgery
He said to walk walk walk and that i plan to do.
Take care everyone hope you are having a great summer.
I did a sister trip to new york city and washington dc and then to ontario with my husband and then to my sisters house in Dieppe New Brunswick.
