My pre op diet is very minimal like broth, and slim fast, Decaf coffee, sugar free Jello. I don't have a dietitian or nut, I did email my contact, she didn't seem too worried about the weight gain. I'm having surgery in Mexico and its a 15 hour drive for us, I don't want to get there and them not be able to do it that would be devastating!!

My date is July 2nd! I started my one week pre-op liquid diet yesterday and it is ROUGH! My Dr is Dr Kim and I'm terrified to eat anything becasue I want my liver to be well enough for surgery but I am so needing to chew something. Any help or tips would be appreciated!

Have you tried chewing ice (like crushed ice?). That always helped when I needed something to eat but wasn't allowed during my inductions with the boys.

I got my date today! It's July 8th! I'm a little anxious because my surgeon likes a 2 week pre-op diet but the date is less than 2 weeks away! I started the diet tonight. I happened to have a support group meeting tonight and my dietitian was there and I talked to her about it; she said it would be okay.

I am 4-days in with my liquid diet. Yes, I will admit I ate 4 small cashews yesterday when I was traveling for work on my flight home but other than that nothing else. I chew a lot of Sonic Ice but overall I have done well. I have lost 5-lbs...praying my 4 cashews will not hinder my July 1st surgery date....pushing Water today and the next 4-days to flush everything out as much as I can. Good Luck I know you will do well ~

      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. 🤞
