Gia24- it gets so much easier after the third day I promise! The 2nd and 3rd day are the toughest but hang in there! I slept most of my liquid diet days away to pass the time quicker! It helps! Stay strong your almost there!

Yeah, I haven't slept much in the last two days, I had my pre-op testing today, so had to fast, once I got home I down 2 shakes and crashed, down the other 2 once I woke up and been eating sf Jello and sf popsicles A lot to curb my appetite. The only things that bother me is the the food commercials on tv! Lol they suck!

My surgeon didn't put me on a pre-op diet but I' m compelled to do at least 2-3 days of it. Can anyone share their diet with me?

I need to start this on Sun and God knows I'm already mourning food!'

      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.
