Day three of liquid veggie fruit diet! I think I am doing good but I feel like I am eating more than I am supposed to which makes it easier but I don't know exactly what a serving size of these fruits and vegetables are. I am having the v8 puréed Soups for lunch they are good! Can you eating to many fruits and veggies hurt???

Ok.... So here is the real issue! I am still smoking! I need to quit! Thank god they are not testing me for it but I am having such a hard time! Anyone still smoke? Anyone smoke after surgery???

Ur doctor isn't doing a nicotine on day of surgery? ? I have been smoke free for three months and was told on the 31 of may they will test me before surgery that day and it has to come back clean.

I had two nicotine tests given to me during my 3 month program, I passed both by quitting. I am not smoking alot, but that is not the point. No more testing for nicotine, just my goals, and I know I need to. Surgery date is 6/4 :) !!!!

I was a smoker pre op. I liked smoking even though I know it's not good for you. So when I decided to have rny I said I was going to quit. I didn't stop smoking unil the day before my surgery. My surgery was April 23rd. It is a month later and I am smoke free. Yay me. I feel so much better.

I doubt that too many fruits and veggies pre-op are going to do any real harm but...too much anything post-op can stretch the pouch. fruit is also pretty high in terms of carbs. Great for you but you don't want to overdue it. Congrats on the surgery date!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
