HI Patty, I feel for you. I started my preop diet 9/4 and am still awaiting a surgery date and it's been hard. The first 8 days I was depressed and horribly tired with an almost constant headache and fuzzy feeling in my head. Now I'm on day 15 and since last weekend I have begun to feel normal again. So it does pass. congrats on your surgery date. My insurance has notified me that I was approved but I have yet to hear from my surgeons office and was told by the bariatric program director TO NOT CALL THEM myself, I guess thats a big no no. I was told it would take a total of 3 weeks to get it done so that wanted me to start my preop diet right away and now I'm two weeks out and still waiting. Well anyway at least I know my insurance has said okay. Good luck to you and hang in there it does get better. Arianna

Thanks Sueaz that makes me feel so much better. I was so weak and felt fuzzy in my head for the first week. Now I'm at day 10 and it seems to be getting a little better. It helps to hear it from someone who's been there though

Hi everyone, I'm awaiting a surgery date and doing the pre-op diet. No so easy but i'm sure happy to be in this place. I have waited so long for this and even changed jobs to one I don't really like but had the right insurance to cover the surgery. Just wondering if anyone else got kinda blue on the post op diet? Does it get easier?:wink_smile:

Hi ATL38, yes i know what you mean about the job scene, so I can't complain too much. The good news for me is my old job wants me back asap so I probably will resign after the surgery and go back to my other position. I feel kinda guilty doing that and my intention wasn't to do that I actually have tried to like the new job but I don't. Well good luck on your surgery date and this dreadful preop diet
