Day 5 of the liquid diet for me and its tough. I slipped a little bit yesterday bc I didn't bring my Protein shake with me when I was running around all day. Im determined to get back on track though! 6 lbs down as of this morning! Hows the liquid diets going for everyone else?

Hello, everyone. My surgery is set for August 7th in Cancun. (I'm in Houston). The liquid diet has been a little tough, but I am allowed 4 oz. of lean meat each day for the first week. That has helped. The hardest thing for me so far is the no caffeine rule...I had horrible headaches.

I'm scheduled for 8/6, started the liquid Protein last Friday, so far so good. My team requires the use of Optifast 800 only for 2 weeks. Honestly I enjoy the vanilla and chocolate by don't like the strawberry so I'm going to swap that for more vanilla/chocolate. For me, I'm not having a problem with the diet, the shakes satisfy me BUT the damn commercials on the telly are hard to watch (pizza, etc.) it's a head game. I feel good but do seem a little short on energy. Stand fast, stay focused, we can do this !!

      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. 🤞
