Day 3 was hard!!!!

Brandi - I never had to do the liquid diet so I can't offer much advice except to say you have done more of the diet than you have left  to do - so hang in there - tomorrow it will just be one day and then you are there - as the others have said keep your eye on the prize - it is so worth it! As for feeling weak - it is only temporary and as my friend' surgeon used to say to his patients - you have enough nutrition and fat in your body to live for weeks without much food so you can do this for a few days longer!  Nearly there.....

Thank you all...Like I said the third day was bad BUT I sent my hubby to wally world last night and he bought me chicken noodle soup and I strained the goodies and drank the broth and it was MUCH BETTER, it seemed more filling!!! I went to bed satisfied! YAY! I did add some unjury to my jello last night and it is nice and chilled so I hope I can get some of it in me today...( it didnt look too appietizing when I mixed it ) But we'll see. Im a lil frustrated this morning because it seems alot of the paper work, I received at my final pre op has different and conflicting info then that of what we were told as we were going over them...so It's a lil confusing! But I do believe Im supposed to start my Phospho soda today and Im planning on running out this morning and getting a quick wax and pedicure first! Love u guy's... Im really excited and REALLY nervous!!!! Ps. DONT FORGET TO PRAY FOR Pam today and Marion tomorrow ( also Blue Crab ( I think ) and then me on Wed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hang in there Girl!!!! You can do this and it will make you stronger.  The mental part is the worse part of it, and this is your body's way of playing with your mind.. BUT...you can beat this!  It's just like any other addict. You are doing the right thing...stay busy and don't think about it!  You are almost there! Good luck!

Your almost there. A few more days then a whole new life. There will be some tough days ahead but in the scheme of time it's a very short period. I'm soooo glad that I had this done. I'm down 90 pounds in 3 1/2 months and feel great. You, too, will get there. You'll look back on these trying days and think nothing of it. It will be just a memory from the past. Best of luck and hang in there. You have many friends to depend on here on OH. Some great advise when you need it. Don't be afraid to ask for help. Bill
