Third day seems to be the hardest for most folks, and was for me. I had a two week pre-op diet. After that, it got a lot better.

Best wishes.

I've been on the pre op diet since last week. The afternoon and evening seem to be the hardest. But, no pain no gain right? :)

^^^^......what she said or Vitamin Water Zero. The electrolytes help with the grumpy, weak and headaches.

I cried day 3-5. I had no energy....no one explained to me that this would happen. If I had known in advance, it would have been much easier.

Also, can anyone tell me how I can get that cute little BMI/Weight marker that most have at the bottom of their post?

Thanks.

I am waking up with a headache so bad that it feels someone hit me with a bat. I have been taking motrin or Migraine exedrin everyday. Really starting to second guess this whole thing.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who's cranky and cold. I'm on day 4 of 14 not hungry though luckily. I'm on a strict only liquid diet. I just feel super thirsty and almost dehydrated even with all the Water I'm drinking. Anyone feel like this? Thanks!

      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. 🤞
