Anyone having surgery 7-15?



Recommended Posts

Day 4 of my pre op diet. Yesterday I was suffering. I have had nausea for quite a bit now, prior to the diet. I had it for 6 days before starting my diet and I have had it up until going to bed last night. Yesterday I wanted to give up.

I was hungy and had nausea for so long I couldn't take it any more. I wanted to just say no to the surgery. I know I need my Hiatal Hernia surgery no matter what but I was ready to be done with the WLS.

Today I am feeling a lot better. Just nausea a bit with the shake I had this morning. (and cleaning the litterbox) ugh.

I am hoping it won't be an all day ordeal and so far it hasn't been. Thank the Lord for that!

I have surgery on the 14! Super excited and nervous all at the same time! !!! Half way through the liquid diet. It hasn't been as bad as I was expecting but I'm worried about getting tired of the Protein Drinks the second week!!

I went to my ml house today and had to leave.....food smelled so good. Just made things worse. Ugh.

I think my biggest problem is coming off the caffine. I am having horrible headaches and feel really sluggish. Its almost like a head fog or haze if that makes sense. I have 0 energy. Anyone else experiencing this? Or am I weird?

I didn't come off caffeine....I need to check to see if I was supposed to. I know I needed to after surgery but I didn't know before too!

I stopped drinking soda a long long time ago but I still drink a cup of coffee a day. I checked my diet and I didn't have to stop it for the liquid diet but I think I will have to stop after surgery.

I will probably try and do one day caffeine, next day Decaf, so on and so forth.

      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. 🤞
