Today I start the liquid/protien diet to prepare for my RNY in one week. I am hoping I can do it. It seems like a long time yet I know it will be here before I know it.

I love your attitude. Mind you, the liquid diet is probably going to be the toughest thing you do. Just hang in there. Wish you much success and happiness

Sorry, but there is no hoping you can do it.  You will do it - you've come this far!

My surgery is two days before you.  I won't lie - it is challenging.  But, after the first couple of days you get used to it.

Hang it there you can do it, if you slip-up just get right back on track.  I am only one week out and Dr. said it went very smoothly because I had lost fat around my liver.  The easier we make it for the surgeon the better it is for us.   Feel free to yell you are starving into a pillow, it helped.  LOL  good luck

I'll be having my surgery on the 26th also so I've been on the liquid since Monday.  Its been tough but okay so far.  Good luck to you and everybody else having it next week!!  Can't wait to see how we all do.
