I start fasting today...

I start fasting today and have my surgery Tues. Im actually going to work today, so Ill see how that works, I guess...lol. I expect that the first day is probably the easy one? I AM allowed to have Atkins and Isopure, which is good.... Anyone have any great suggestions? xo Joy

Good luck, Joy! How long do you have to fast - all the way until Tuesday? Is it a liquid fast? If so, I didn't think that was so hard - I had to do it for 1 week. you can do this. Just think - it's a great way to jump start your weight loss, too! Best Wishes, Robin

Hey Joy, I'm so excited for you. I don't have advice on fasting because it wasn't required for me. I was taking little bites all my favorites until 11:59 the night before. Psycho! So yeah, uh, I wish I could help. Can you make smoothies? Like out of fruit with protein powder??? We'll be thinking about ya, Amber

I didn't have to do the liquid or fasting so I am not much help on advice but did want to give you some encouragement. You are on the road for your journey and soon to be on the losing side. Courtney

Joy, good luck Tuesday. I only had to do a liquid diet for one day. Not too bad. Take care of yourself and let us know how the surgery goes. Can't wait to see you on the losing side. Corinn

Joy, You are the one who will be giving me suggestions! hugs, Jen

Good luck Joy! I didn't have to fast either so I don't have much advice except that shrinking the liver makes surgery much easier! Take some protein if you can as that will help sustain you.... Jackie

Thank you all. Today is bowel prep. yippee. Im on the portapotty at the computer...LOL (j/k)! It's really not as bad as I thought it was going to be. HOWEVER, my husband, who doesn't even like pizza, chose today to bring one home????? (cuss). I made him and the kids go outside to the picnic table to eat it. At least I can have chicken stock...lol. I hope tomorrow goes FAST! Thanks fer thinking of me...Ill let you know how it goes. xo J
