    Question My first day!

    Today is the first day of my 10-day pre-op liquid diet. Any tips or suggestions to get through this time? Also, does anyone know what my target should be on protein grams and calorie intake?

    Ooh, ooh! Am I first? LOL. First of all, a GIGANTIC Woo-Hoo and congratulations to you. Today is most definitely the first day of the rest of your life. I can remember that day so vividly. I was excited and all aflutter and could not wait until my surgery. My surgeon said 4-6 shakes a day but if I remember correctly, I had about 4. I lost 16 lbs before my surgery even took place and today I'm 85 lbs down. I'm so happy for you and can't wait to hear of your progress. It's an amazing journey!

    I did 4 shakes a day , sugarless popscicles. Since my surgery was in the "winter".
    I had a friend who made all kinds of soup.. She made extra broth for me . Better than the pre made stuff.
    Thee first3 or 4 days are the hardest so find something to keep you busy.I cleaned everything in the apartment and started walking more .This was easy for me because we live in Florida .good luck!!
