im on day 2 of my preop ive lost 4.6lbs since yesterday morning by only having 3 shakes a day and 80 ounces of water. im starving and my head is killing me. i never imagined my head would be pounding this bad. im going through all the worst possible cravings and being a nanny and having to prepare dinner for kids doesn't help the slightest. i feel so grouchy and irritable. whenever i try to work out i get really light headed and i dont know why. =[ i find myself doubting my decision bc i am so hungry. anyone going through things like this?

started my preop diet today- and was so sick =[. what does everyone think about freezing the shakes into popsicles to make them more enjoyable. same thing with isopure after surgery. i know for me right now its a struggle to even get 30 oz of water and 1 shake down. i also feel insanely on edge.. like cranky or snappy as well as very out of it and spacey =[. what is everyone going through and feeling during preop?? all my diet consists on is bariatric advantage protein powder yogurt - fatfree broth and clear liquids. any recommendations on how to consume this powder?? -

@@karla23 hey! congrats on getting so far w your liquid diet. i am about to start mine tomorrow and my surgery is the 21st of april. i took off two weeks because i work with children and they are very hands on. i hear drs recommend 2-3 weeks depending on your profession and level of activity. what do you do? i have the same fears about the shakes - that they wont be enough etc. im more afraid to not like the bariatric advantage powder lol. whatever you need you can always ask =]

I dont know about toes but no fingernail polish. It interferes with the oxygen monitor. bMy surgeon is letting me keep my tips as long as it's a French style and my toes can be any color e said comes to it he'll wipe one off and the nurse will repaint it for me ) -
