Hey the pre-op diet is hard....everyone who had to do it can atest to that....just stay focused on what you desire....a healthier life, the first 3 days will be hard, you will hit what I call "the wall" and on day 4 it will become easier....

Just think of the pre-op diet as it getting you ready for the eating stages after the surgery (which it is)

Hi Mich! I know you can do it. I was sleeve this past Tuesday and had a two week pre op diet of 2 shakes and one Protein rich meal a day. Well....let me tell you.....over the 14 days we were at Disney for 6 days (over Thanksgiving no less) and then I had a girls weekend in New York City. If I can do it with all that going on I know you an too! I just kept thinking about how important it was for the surgery to be as successful as possible! Good luck! Let me know if I can help!

I did good but now waiting waiting waiting for Monday. Getting a little nervous. Don't know what I'm afraid of but none the less. How did your surgery go. How long did it take. How long we're you out.

Thanks for the support.

Home and trying to get as much Water in me as possible. Feeling good. Hubby a big help. He got us out of dinner Friday night. I did not tell a whole lot of people. And a big dinner being planned this weekend. He said we couldn't make it. He's has been soooooo good this past week, helping me get ready and then helping me get through the nerves. Don't know if I could have done it without him.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • 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
