Starving And Not Hardly Losing On Liquid Diet!



Recommended Posts

Was allowed full liquids last week and clear this week and I have lost 2lbs. Not 10 not expecting miracles I only cheated once and even with that I have kept 800 or less so day 10 and just 2 pounds :(

I flipped out because there were two days during my second week where the scale didn't move. Now I look back and laugh at myself! I know it's difficult, but be patient. Follow your post-op diet; it WILL start to come off.

It's better to lose 2 lbs than to gain 2 lbs. you have done good, even if you cheated 1 time. Just keep doing what your doing and it will come off. :)

Your body is still saying "WTH did you do to me????" There's a lot of adjusting going on in there that you can't see. No worries. :)

Your pre op diet isn’t about weightloss not the 2 week pre op diet before surgery its to shrink your liver it’s a completely different thing to a loosing weight diet to reach goal to get the green light for surgery and its different to the post op loosing weight diet.

This one for 2 weeks is just for shrinking the liver don’t jump on the scales and keep checking yourself out its not for weight you will just go crazy trying to make the scale move when its not for that.

I just started my liquid diet today and I must say man this is hard! Good thing I work up until I have my surg next wednesday!!! Does it get any easier????

Day 2 was the worst for me! By day 4 I was no longer homicidal. Still a short fuse and when I went to Clear Liquids I am adjusting again but it does get better.

I started my pre-op diet today, it wasn't as bad as i thought. I am hungry but it is 530 pm so I probably should eat. My biggest problem will be at night. Usually I have a cup of coffe but I can't so we'll see how the night goes.

        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.

      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
