The pre-op diet was super tough for me too! I was HANGRY all the time' date=' but I did lose 12 pounds and it made me excited for the surgery. My only. advice is don't burn yourself out on the shakes, because you'll be drinking plenty of those after the surgery![/quote']

Thanks Dallas, feeling a lil better today. Were you on just all liquids or low carbs?

I weighed myself and I've lost 3lbs. Since Wednesday.

( 5days) I did however sprain my left ankle today at work. Then I cycled for 5miles, which probably didn't help. I felt ok then, but now.... well that's a different story. Thanks for your support. How far out are you? Thanks again!

I was on all liquid, but my dr said I could have a Lean Cuisine every other day for dinner. I am 1 week post-op and can barely get my Protein shakes down at all. I am drinking maybe an oz at a time! But my dr said it will get easier and I've been trying to check out other Protein choices. I am on the full liquids for 2 more weeks.

I am down 20 lbs as of today so yay!

So my pre surgery was over 70 grams of Protein less than 30 carbs. So I have been doing eggs , turkey meat, turkey sausage, chicken breast, Company dinner tonight at BBQ place. So I did just a little sausage, turkey, and lean brisket- very little sauce. Yesterday did salad with olives and turkey meat. Very low carb Italian dressing ....so I am staying under on my carbs. Hitting my protein. But that is what was asked of us. It's odd with all the variances. So hopefully what I have done is ok. Doing my surgery on the 24th

I didn't have any preop diet except 2 days before of 64g of Liquid Protein and 64oz of Water. Now I'm 7 days postoperative and struggling with the Protein shakes, Water is easier and I actually look forward to my gummi multi vitamin! Lol

      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.
