I've done so well on the diet until today. I'm on my period, and 800 calories is definitely not enough for this hunger. I ended up having a can of chicken noodle Soup. It wasn't a cheeseburger, but I'm still wanting to eat. I'm sure it is emotional. I'm so angry that I have until the 22nd, and I'm struggling so hard.

give yourself a break. Be kind to yourself. I am only a week out after getting my sleeve and my hunger is very little.I feel completely in control of my eating for the first time and I had a hard time on my pre diet.You can do this.Forgive yourself and start again. I would have never made it without boxes of sugar free Popsicles.

I am finishing up day 8 of my pre-op liquid diet and I am having a very hard time tonight. I am due for my period, having the PMS cravings and PMS headaches and have just been sitting g in my bed so I don't get too close to temptations!!!!! I wish the 23rd would get here all ready!!!!!!! :(

I'm on the same boat, I'm on my pre-op diet and starting my period soon. I actually think I'm going to be starting the day of my surgery or be on day two. It's going to be horrible to be at the hospital like that especially because I get it really bad. I'm craving sweets and starting to cramp.. Ugh.. :(

I see so many of u are on a pre-op diet. Is this to lose weight right before surgery? My Dr just had me on a 1200 diet up until surgery. I lost 25# . I did not have to even do Clear Liquids the night before. My surgery was Jan 14, and I am doing really good. It is hard to get your stage

2 diet in.

Give yourself a break. It is hard but you just have to remember that you are doing this to be ready for surgery. It will be ok

      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.

      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.
