Im on the 26th as well..on my prepot diet..so hungry but im going to push through this. Do you find it easier to have your small meal for lunch or dinner?

Some people are not allowed to have a small meal, some docs don't even require a pre-op diet, some require a few days or a week, everyone is different..I on the other hand am allowed a small meal, I choose to have my dinner meal, because I don't eat lunch, because I'm sleeping during the day cause I work nights, so as soon as I wake up, I eat a small meal, then around 10pm I have my last shake. But also I'm allowed unlimited veggies, FF broth, and sugar free Jello..so it hasn't been bad at all, I'm on day 7 of my 2 week diet

Day 10 of my liquid diet. I'm kind of used to it right now. Down 12lbs. and including today have 5 more days before my surgery on the 24th. I find that in the morning I add 2 espresso shots and ice cubes to my vanilla shake so that it's like an iced coffee (my Dr. gave me this tip). That's my favourite shake of the day.

Good luck to anyone getting banded tomorrow. I'm scheduled for Wednesday April 24th and I can't wait. I have my heating pad, liquid Tylenol, chewable Gravol & Gas X. Lost 12lbs on the shake diet over the past 10 days. Anyways, good luck to the remaining April bandsters!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
