Did anyone else feel super irritable and cranky during the pre-op diet?

I was extremely grumpy but as the few pounds came off, the grumpiness seemed to just disappear (and the fact I got used to not having the food I was used to). Hang in there.

im pretty sure thats normal because your body kinda goes into shock i think because your not used to liquid diets. I was the same way and like daisychains said it will get better.

HELL YES!!!! No more eating my favorite crap really pissed my body off! I think my body was rebelling, screaming DON'T DO THIS! And during that time I think my husband and kids would have agreed with my body. I was so cranky and irritable I think if my husband could have ran a chocolate I.V. In my arm he would have! It goes away once your body detoxes from crap! LOL...good luck and God Bless the people around you during this time! LOL

I'm on Day 3 of a 14-day pre-op. I was hell on wheels for the first two, and this morning I woke up feeling on top of the world. I hope it sticks. I have a friend coming to stay with me this weekend and I don't want him running for the hills. Good luck! We're all gonna make it!

Hah, my first time around I cried and had tantrums, screaming in my car alone going "IF I COULD DO THIS I WOULDN'T NEED THE BAND!" hahaha. and I only had to do 7 days.

I start my pre op diet in 10 days. It's hard not "getting the pizza in while I can" but I can't seem to help myself.

      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.
