Hello, my surgery is scheduled for 11/7/2013! This pre-op liquid diet is a beast ( at least for me). Please tell me some better things to try Please! I'm currently doing the broths, Greek yogurt which I can't stand, Protein Shakes, sugar- free drinks ect..... Is there anything else that I can try that maybe somewhat pleasant ? HELP!!!!!

It is tough but you can do it!!

I also got sick of the normal home Soups and shakes. I ordered Soup from my favorite Chinese restaurant..so yummy and I also loved the sugar free popsicles! (These two items helped me make it through the post-op phase)

Good luck and keep on keepin on!!

I had to do pre-op twice....2 full weeks of 4 Protein Shakes a day! They tasted like poop!

You can do this..I did and so have others....Get it together girl! This is the real deal......lol

You get to eat broth, yogurt, etc!....Oh if I only had what you get to have!!!!!!!!!!

By day 5, I was fine..just hang in there best you can! The liquid phase lasts beyond surgery, so try to chin up and beat this!

You can do it!

But you are doing it! Just remember this time the "diet" is for a really good reason!

And lol egg drop soup? Yeah I didn't think that would turn out good.

You are stronger than me. During my preop diet I had a desperate post about diet pills to suppress my hunger. Everyone here was great and I didn't use them but letting you know I feel your pain! You are almost done. Great job kicking the liquid diet's a**. You got this!

      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
