i see that alot of nut's have diferent ideas about the liquid diet! i see some people can have salad. i want a salad so bad......... but i was told my a friend who did this to NOT eat anything at all' date=' just drink the liquids and clear stuff like SF Jello, pudding, posicles, fudgesicles. yes they taste great and i cant get enough sometimes of the jello/popsicles. but i could really go for a salad at lunch or dinner. i put a call into my nut. but haven't hear back yet. so wanting to eat lettuce and tomatoes, cucumber, celery, and maybe even make myself a juice in the juicer!

any thoughts?

congrats to all you who started the liquids this week. let me tell you, i didn't think i could do it myself! but i have been strong, dont think about food, stay away from the TV! watch movies only. think about how much less you really need to feel satisfied, i honestly didnt' think a shake would fill me, but it has so far. i eat Jello in the am, have a small juice, then my shake. its lunch that gets me! and its hard at work smelling the toasted bread! but we can do this! a small price to pay for a lifetime of skinny!![/quote']

I am on my pre-diet now. I get my sleeve on the 15th of October. I am on a 600-800 calorie diet. I can eat 3 oz of Protein and 1 cup cooked vegetables or 2 cups uncooked. I have to take 2 Multivitamins a day and 2 chewable Calcium bites. No dairy, no oil, no carbs or very very limited. I've lost 7 lbs since Monday.

I can have Protein shakes instead if I want. (I don't )

Every Nut and surgeon is different.

Stay strong.

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
