I've been doing the same thing as you and having all my food funerals. A lot of people recommend not doing that, but actually I think it's been helpful for me. I've been really noticing the food that I've been eating. Now that I'm not just shoving it in, I'm finding that the sweets really don't make me feel well afterwards, and i don't enjoy them as much as I thought I would. i start my diet on July 10th and I intend to keep this in mind when I feel like I am craving carbs. I'll be thinking about you. We can do this!

The first 48 hours of pre-op is the worst. Most of the withdrawals are on the down hill after that! Good luck.

Yes, exactly! I got terrible headaches from carb withdrawal for the first 2-3 days, then I felt much better.

Its July 16th for me, scared and happy at the same time!

Good luck to us all

We'll just be a few days ahead of you, whining nonstop! :P

I didn't realize how addicted I am to Diet Pepsi! It's definitely my weakness :( I'm only required a 3 day pre -op diet but I decided to start following a high Protein diet 2 weeks pre-op to help me prep mentally. Today's only day 2!

First day and doing well. Feeling good. Almost forgot to drink Water so I'm prolly not going to get in 64 oz. But so far I feel ok. I'm spacing out my real foods with the shakes. Bfast had shake and banana. Then had my gummies Vitamins. Then another shake. lunch had half cup Beans one eighth of avocado. Worked on water this afternoon and plan to do 3rd shake if I can't wait till I get home . dinner will be steamed carrots and 3oz lean chicken or turkey for Protein. ..I can do this.

To clarify first day pre op 2 week diet

I wish I could have some real food! My doctor is super strict! I can only have broth, Jello, ice pops, and my shakes!!! I'm super bored already! Plus I hate these shakes! I'll admit I've been living off ice pops and broth ???? idk if my body is going to crash without any nutrients? His is def harder than I thought it would be ????

Try the premier Protein, they are pretty decent, not too expensive, and you don't have to mix anything.


costco sells them and online you can get them. costco.com too.

Have you tried unjury's chicken Soup flavor and unflavored Protein Powder? They are awesome. I dislike shakes, so I'm using those.

My surgery is July 13th! Started my 2 week pre-op diet yesterday. It actually wasn't terrible because I was so busy at work and it made it easier to just grab a quick shake!

      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.
