TeacherMommy 35 Posted September 20, 2014 I'm day 5 now... Yesterday was my best day yet, but this morning I woke up with a killer headache. I'm wondering if because I've cut back so much that my body has become deficient in something. Carbs maybe?? Haha seriously tho... I'm wondering if it's a Vitamin thing.

TeacherMommy 35 Posted September 20, 2014 I'm 5 days into my liquid diet. My surgery date is sept 30th... I Prob do need to drink more Water because it seems to only hit me when I wake up. As I get hydrated and "eat" something, I feel better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lose4life2 152 Posted September 20, 2014 I'm 6 days into my pre op liquid too. I feel pretty crappy in the morning as well. I think it's just kind of common will our baby freaks out because we aren't feeding it. My surgery is Tuesday. When is yours? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alexsisv 139 Posted September 21, 2014 Did you cut out caffeine? I had monster headaches - just a few sips of coffee and I was good to go. Feel better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lose4life2 152 Posted September 22, 2014 I hear you. We've had some added stress in our lives the last couple days with trying to take care of my Uncle's estate since my parents live in a different state, but I hung in there and just filled a cooler of liquids and brought them with me. Now today I'm getting my house all clean so I'm ready to go to surgery tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dropdeadweightdiva 150 Posted September 23, 2014 Yeppers on the fluids suggestion.. The liquid pre op headaches suck and the only thing that will head them off is water.. keep some by your bed through the night and when you wake up to turn over etc take a big sip.. drink a decent sized glass before bed .. and keep on drinking lol.. it gets less common as you go but they do turn up post op as well when you slack of on your Fluid intake Good luck with your surgeries ladies!

lose4life2 152 Posted September 26, 2014 I'm excited for you... Post an update as soon as u can...Post op day 3 and doing much better. I think I'll actually get more than 32 oz of liquid today. No pain other than random gas pain, but nauseous. I took a Zofran yesterday and decided maybe I better keep taking those regular for a couple days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
