Pre-op diet day: 11

Hungry, tired of shakes, tired of dealing with ignorant people. Tuesday can not come soon enough. I need prayers! I am frustrated and need alone time. Freaking out wandering if I am always going to feel this way due to hunger. I had no idea I was so addicted of food. Being a mom and wife I have to tuff it out and make sure they eat.

Thanks for listening.

Try to get more of those shakes down. you won't regret it. 5 a day with Water or 4 a day with milk. I wasn't ever physically hungry if I kept up on those. You are ALMOST there girl. You can do it!! My "freak out, I've had enough of this #$%^" day was day 10. After that, I just went numb. On the other side of surgery you won't feel this way. Get some little sugar free candies to suck on. That helped me a LOT. Lifesavers and Jolly Ranchers both make sugar free. I got mine at Target and/or Walmart.< /p>

You can do this!!!! You're almost there!!!

Hot chicken broth helps too when you are ready to strangle someone - maybe its the heat that helps calm the nerves, not sure, but I used it instead of killing my boss! LOL - YOU CAN FINISH!!

I'm on my last day of pre op diet!!!!! My surgery is tomorrow!!!! My wonderful husband came home a few days ago with sugar free Extra APPLE PIE FLAVORED GUM!!!!!!!!!!! OMG....what a life saver. It allows you to chew and taste a delicous flavor. He's since bought me mint chocolate chip, and strawberry shortcake. Highly recommend for your pre op diet to get a different and satisfying taste in your mouth!!! Good luck. Wish me luck, I go in tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

        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
