RNsleever715 117 Posted June 22, 2015 Y'all. I am starting this low carb diet today... been on it a total of what, 4 hours? I'm ready to call the *waaaaaahmbulance* All joking aside, I feel like CRAP! Whenever I low carb, I always feel like I've been run over the first few days until ketosis kicks in - this is why I never low carb. LOL! I have no idea why I'm posting, other than to be a titty baby & whine a little. LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Just Lindsey 3 Posted June 22, 2015 My co-worker had to go on the liquid diet two weeks prior to her sleeve and was miserable for the first two days. By day three though, she was golden. Hang in there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rainnie1976 46 Posted June 22, 2015 I started my mostly liquid diet yesterday! I feel like I might actually be dying! Hahah! Hopefully the day three goldenness will apply to me as well. I need it. I still have another four days work at school before the summer holidays begin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AvaFern 3,516 Posted June 22, 2015 Haha, your title "I'm dying" made me laugh. You will get through it! I've been trying to eat less today than I did this weekend and I'm eating normal food, but I'm hungry, and cranky, and I might be dying as well, lol. Hope the day goes fast for you!

ShrinkingPeach 1,291 Posted June 22, 2015 Your title also made me laugh. You've got this. Day 3 it really does get better, it did for me too. Keep your eyes on the prize and know that after surgery you won't even be able to eat a full meal, you will look back amazed! Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RNsleever715 117 Posted June 22, 2015 I can't wait!!! This big ole tummy is growling like crazy today... *sigh* I'm ready to get this show on the road! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamieLogical 8,710 Posted June 22, 2015 We all just need to whine and vent sometimes! No need to apologize. The pre-op diet is teh suck and we all know it. Hang in there! This is where the true test of your patience begins and you are going to need a LOT of that in the coming weeks/months! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wascott 395 Posted June 22, 2015 @@RNsleever715 I know what you mean. When I switced over to Ketosis I felt really bad for a few days. After that I felt great. I lost a lot a weight following that plan though. I made it through the liquid phase easily after that. I'm sitting at the OCC as we speak. I'm waiting for my turn in surgery. You can do it!

The happy drugs will take care of any of your last minute jitters and soon you'll be under. Coming out of the anesthesia sucked pretty hard core for me. Make sure you ask for some ice chips to suck on, because your mouth/throat will be sore and dry, but you won't be able to drink anything yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
