Surgery scheduled Dec 10

Day 1 of the three day clear liquid diet before RNY surgery Tuesday morning.  Today is the day I take back the power I have given to food and to my own unhealthy eating habits.  I just found this message board yesterday and it's already been a great help.  I'm one of this individuals who thought step would only be for people who "really lost control" as I only am about 75 pounds overweight, BMI 36, however the sleep apnea and other problems which have started as I turn 50 this year have convinced me otherwise.  My story is so similar to so many of the posts I've read here I won't bore you all with my yo-yo story.  Here's to a new future!

We are excited for you!! Congratulations.  Here are some links to information you may find helpful:

I'm also having  WLS on the 10th .  We can do this.

Hello wishful0425! How are you doing with this pre-surgery liquid diet?  It's making me wish Tuesday morning were here right now :)

Morning, how is day 2 going for you?  As for me, today is day 9 of my liquid diet and it's going better then I thought, my saving grace has been 3 Premier Protein drinks a day  and 64-72oz of water and I have done great but don't get me wrong I wish Tuesday was here already.
