ChristieK 70 Posted March 26, 2013 I am on day 6 of the preop diet. My surgery is Thursday. Woo hoo. And all has been well until last night. My stomach feels horrible. I was up until 4:30 this morning feeling like I'm gonna puke, but my stomach is grumbling like its hungry. Then iv gone to the bathroom a billion times. Between peeing, gas, and "loosish" stool (TMI sorry ) I'm exhausted. Now, I may be over thinking because I'm an over thinker. It's what I do. But am I getting sick???? Lord I hope not. My preop diet consists of 3 Protein Shakes, 5oz piece of meat and either 1 cup of cooked veggies or 2 cups of raw veggies. And I have stuck with this plan except for one small bite of Mac and cheese to taste the flavor because my kids were complaining. Ahhhh HELP!!!!!

Dark Ranger 12 Posted March 26, 2013 Welcome to the pre-op diet. You are likely not getting sick. It's because most sugar free Protein Drinks cause a laxative effect and you're eating veggies too. You're doing a good job of flushing your digestive tract. That is probably making you feel a little sick along with being nervous about surgery. Don't worry.

I'm feeling a lot better after finally falling asleep for about 2 hours. Lol. I honestly think part of it is my nerves are starting to get the better of me. It's ok, 1 more day and this will all be behind me. Sleeve Date: March 28, 2013 First Goal 50lbs: July 13, 2013 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
