I was on liquid for 2 weeks preop and had a headache from hell the first 4 days. Dr said it was caffeine and sugar withdrawals which is kind of an eye opener to think your body is addicted to caffeine and sugar ...but it was. By the 5th day it subsided. I hope yours does too.

Good luck on your journey, u can look it up on your comp or even go to the library & check if they have the book. I tried that diet b4 & that's where i found it.... Good luck :-)

i was on Protein shakes 2 weeks before my surgery, i had a headache for about 3 -4 days. it's your body missing that yummy addicting sugar and caffeine. it should subside in a couple of days, keep hydrated. if i'm not mistaken adkins is about Protein, so have some slices of turkey, ham, or peanuts on hand. there's plenty of books that can help you out on the do's & don't of the adkins.

Good luck

It is great to know that others are going through this. I quit drinking any soda over a year ago but i love my sugar. I didn't call my dr about it but it is nice to know why I have had the headaches.

Me too I did have one that I really liked it was pure Protein 100% whey protein but ran out and went back to Walmart to get some more and of course they didn't have it so grabbed some other that looked similar and I Hate It! My husband is doing the liquid diet with me and he isn't usually picky about his Protein drinks and he hates it too! So I need to find something else I like.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
