Piece of cake, peachy easy, just as quick as frosting on the cake. Can I come up with any more food phrases that say, You can do it Vick.

By the way, 7 days done, 13 to go then surgery and 2 more weeks of liquids. Total of 5 weeks. Ughhhhhh. I think the lactaid is helping, less bloated this am. Gotta go and get a shake to start the day. No, that is a shake before bed. Started my first of 10 night shifts last night. Off to catch some zzzzz's in a bit. Hugs Kathy

Vick, you can do it! It won't be fun, but I know you can. Feel free to vent here! BUT I am wondering why they are having you do the liquids for 2 days? To shrink your liver? Hang in there gal!

I had to have 3 weeks of liquid diet before surgery ( was told it was to shrink the liver and to loose 10% of excess body weight before surgery) and 3 weeks after surgery... It was not as bad as I thought it would be - as they consider sugar free jello a liquid and sugar free Popsicles, so it was sorta like have some solids...

I know you can get through it, It is all worth it for the end result!!

Vick already had WLS. She is going in for a hernia repair, and they are gonna remove excess skin in the process. Thats why I am not sure why the liquid diet.
I am not sure if that is standard or not. I know when Paul had his hernia repair, there was no liquid diet, just nothing by mouth after midnight the night before.

Well huh then do not understand why the liquid diet either.... Sounds kinda silly to me, but there must be a reason, other than making poor Vick suffer for 2 days....
