MindfulWeightLoss 19 Posted June 7, 2013 One more for June 17. Pre op testing tomorrow. Started pre surgical diet of Optifast. Not terrible, I can do this for 10 days! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmyRN09 28 Posted June 8, 2013 Yay my date too! How are you guys doing on the preop diet? I'm having headaches and very grumpy and only the 2nd day. Lol otherwise its not too bad Make sure you drink drink drink. Headaches are a sign of dehydration. Also don't do too much strenuous activity/ exercise. You don't have the calories to allow for it.

barrerad 0 Posted June 22, 2013 I had mine on the 17th as well. There's been ups and downs but I'm so ready for a new me. How is everyone doing so far? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleevesyked 3 Posted June 22, 2013 Having a ruff time here. I have fibromyalgia so my pain was almost unbearable at times. I am just starting to be able to move around more and its getting easier everuday as it should. I am doing the full liquids at the moment and I dnt know how much I'm suppossed to eat and I can't really tell if I'm full but I feel hungry shortly after so maybe I'm not eating enough. I have been eating 2 oz of creamed Soup. I think I'm scared to get to full and feel horrible or throw it back up. How is your pain and food intake going?

barrerad 0 Posted June 22, 2013 So sorry you're hurting....I just feel really weak and like I've done hundreds of sit ups. Walking has helped a lot. However, today I just haven't felt well. I went from being so constipated and gassy to pooping out everything that goes in. I have taken Gas x and Miralax the last two days so I guess it's doing it's job. I've only had a few ounces of chicken broth and I've managed to get down one Premier Protein shake throughout the day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
