I hated the pre op diet. I got so tired of the shakes but I powered throught it. I won't lie I did cheat a little especially the first week. How long is your pre op diet?

Hi, I have cheated to and catch myself cheating even more. All the surgeon said I have to lose 10% of my body weight. I started at 263.8, 263.6, 258.6. But now I feel I gained weight back.

I just can't get back on track, and those shakes omg are so gross LOL.

You could try these, possibly? I've been trekking out to costco for them, but someone said they got them at Sam's and lo and behold, I just discovered that my Sam's now carries them! YAY! They do have a bit of an artificial sweetener aftertaste to them, but they are the easiest ones for me to get down. If you need to cut the sweet, they can be watered down a bit with Water or almond milk. That DOES increase the volume, though...and these are pretty little...you could get through them fairly quickly. And then there is Monster Milk...50 grams of Protein per serving, which is HUGE. You can get that online or at The Vitamin Shoppe. It's a powder, though...I have to put it in green smoothies...I can't stomach powdered Protein by itself.

interesting but there is no way for me to get to any of those stores, all I have near by is stop&shop and shaws.

and I haven't even started to take the Vitamins, my dr.said I should start taking them now. I guess so they can be in my system before the surgery.

      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.
