Liquid Diet Day 1! How's everyone else?



Recommended Posts

So today is my first day of liquids and I'm feeling fine! I had a last meeting with my nutritionist and Pre- surgery testing... Now just the countdown to 8/13.

No appointments- no testing. Just two weeks to chill lol.

Confession: I've been fasting from sun-up to sun-down (about 17 hours with no food or drink!) for the last 20 days for religious reasons so this liquid diet is not so bad! Haha. I will miss that evening meal, though : /

How is it going for other August sleevers???

Glad to hear you are doing well!!

This is my second week of my four week pre op diet (surgery is August 16th) and I'm doing okay. Sometimes I fantasize about food lol or I will try and convince myself that I can run out for just one meal and I still have two weeks until my surgery to do just liquids but I have resisted.

On the bright side my house is VERY clean :D

I'm at day 6 of the liquid diet and it is harsh!!! I can only have 1 cup of SF jello' date=' 5 SF carnation instant breakfast, 3 SF Popsicles, and all the Water I want. -.-[/quote']

I feel your pain lol Day 2 is kicking my butt. My stomach has been grumbling... I'm going to have some broth later! I can have six Protein shakes (I'm doing Atkins Advantage & GNC lean shake) I can supplement it with broth, SF Jello, SF Popsicles & Crystal Light.

I'm day 1 and 26 to go! My band removal is 8/27 and I'm on a 4 week liquid diet. I think having the band helps because today I did fine with it. (But theres 26 days to go) Even when my husband had me drive through the taco shop so he could get a carne asada burrito. (Although I though it was pretty inconsiderate of him)!

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
