I spent my last week saying goodbye, or see ya later, to many of my favorite foods. I was so lucky not to have a pre-op diet.

Great that your birthday was recent - and before you surgery! Glad you splurged and enjoyed that steak! My husband bbq'd steak tonite and it is taking me forever to eat a couple of ounces.

My sister took me out for a fabulous seafood dinner two nights before my surgery - which was scheduled for my 49th bday!

There will be plenty of time to eat perfectly soon. Enjoy your last few days without sabotaging your surgery : )

I had fajitas and one too many margaritas the night before I started my preop diet. It was glorious.

Its so exciting to think of all the things that life can be. Outdoors.... camping.... hiking.... biking..... all the stuff I used to do.

We're gonna be fabulous!!!!

(congats on the "no preop diet" thing....mine sucked)

take care

Jack - go ahead and enjoy yourself before your surgery. That is one of my main regrets that I didn't do that. I didn't have to do a pre-op diet since I had a lower BMI but for some reason I think I was just tired of eating. Now I wish I could go back about 6 weeks and have a feast!

Best of luck to you.

I had some carbs which I normally do not have. Before officially starting my liquid diet I went out for a seafood dinner. Once I arrived in Mexico Dr. Aceves said to go wild and have a good last meal. I had tacos for lunch, club sandwich with fries for dinner and a piece of fruit for a snack. I portion controlled all of it. I wish I would've had a few more items but I was afraid that my liver would not shrink enough and there would be complications or that my blood sugar would spike suddenly from the higher carb foods.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
