I am not doing so well on my pre-op diet... I need some words of wisdom and some people telling me they had a hard time too... Have one more week of this and I want to do it right

Hun, only you...and I mean only you can choose how to approach this diet. Either you want to go all the way, or you want to add in your own way of doing things.

Will agree, the preop diet is horrid torture. But remember this is for your own benefit. Shrinks the liver allowing easier access for the surgeon. Also it preps you for that post-op diet right after surgery.

Wishing you the best to be your best!

Yeah I know the reasoning... It is crazy how some people don't have to do this. I am good with my Protein shakes... I just suck at cooking... That is where the problem lies

I start my 3 week pre-diet next Monday. I just looked over what I'll get to eat and it's so depressing. I need to go in with a better attitude, but I don't know how I'm going to survive on so few calories. I get headaches and grouchy when I don't eat. Co-workers beware.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
