I've been avoiding the markets because I didn't think there was anything there for me to eat right now, and I didn't want to be tempted.   Thank you for telling me about this place!  

My surgery date is Monday, May 9th :)  I'm not there yet, but super close!  I'm currently on the liquid diet and sipping chicken broth as we speak.  I'm a little bit moody because I'm hungry, but I'm also determined to make it through.  Dr. Boisvert said that one week liquid diet was mandatory, two was better, so I'm going for the two.  This time next week I'll be done, and hopefully preparing to go home the next morning.

Congrats on getting your sleeve done and I'm glad you're feeling better. I'm six months out now, and I promise you that you are in for a great ride.

Do your very best to establish your good habits early - there is no such thing as being to faithful to the program. Keep us in the loop on your progress!

4 days out and feeling much better. Gas pains going away slowly and I take 5min walks every hour or so. It helps alot! Getting used to only being able to take small sips at a time. Need to start early in the day to get all the required liquids in!

Had surgery yesterday. I've been in so much pain since then. Having to stay an extra night at the hospital. Still no regrets but hoping to feel better soon.
