Cranky....pre-op?!

[lookingahead 7]

Hi! I'm on my 6th day of my pre-op diet, and have been doing well and haven't cheated (unless one breath mint counts?) and I'm feeling a bit cranky and don't really want to deal with people. Did anyone else experience this? I'm not angry about not eating because I understand the big picture, but just feel eh meets cranky. Totally excited for the surgery and the future, trying to keep my eye on the prize, but wishing I had more pep. Thoughts?

Yes!!! I think this probably happened to most of us! I was very irritable, my dietician actually told me to warn my husband/family before I started the pre-op diet that I could get very cranky. Felt like PMS! Lol

Thanks Kristin! Glad that I'm not alone. Totally like PMS...comes and goes. Fine and then I'm crazy cranky, then I'm crying...then I'm fine. Oy!!!!

Count me in. Combine the liquid diet with the anxiety, excitement, fear...recipe for cranky!
