Third day of pre op diet and Im really doing okay
sheriah posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It the third day and I think I'm doing okay. I've completely blocked the thoughts of breakfast and dinner out of my mind. The protein shakes are still not pleasant and I'm still running to the restroom but for the most part my good.Focusing on surgery day!However, I will admit its very hard to smell other people food or watch them eat.Even driving by restaurants is hard because you can smell the food, which sucks! -
I've been told gas x strips are a must to have after surgery. Mine is Oct 18th.

Day five of shakes and looking forward to preop appointment
sheriah posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm still doing ok. I find weekends are harder to deal with because I have to make.breakfast, lunch and dinner for everyone vs weekdays, when I only have to cook dinner so that sucks. I'm excited about my preop appointment Monday where they'll test my blood to make sure I have no complications to the anesthesia. Very important to me!.Also, I'll be a week and a day away from surgery day! -
Day four: Still running to bathroom:(
sheriah posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's day four and I'm still good. I won't lie, I get hunger headaches and the smell of food does get to me. I'm impressed that I haven't cheated so overall I focused, ready for the 18th! -

Yes!Thanks! -
Second Day of pre op diet. Yesterday got somewhat better. Though the protein shakes were aweful and I had to go to the restroom afterwards, I can say my hunger was contained way better than I though. I was okay until five or six pm then I was starving!What worked for me was lots of water and spearmint gum. I've had my protein shake this morning and the restroom trip:)but feeling okay so far.
