Feeling crappie pre-op

[Neutz 0]

Almost finished with 2 week pre-op clear liquids/protein diet and feel terrible - jittery, dizzy, fatigued, brain fog. Getting 90oz (or more) Water & 90 grams Protein (4 Premier Protein) - around 650 calories - plus Barriatic Advantage PRE-OP Vitamin. Surgery on Monday - scared that this will be my life after surgery, too. Lost 10lbs last 2 weeks and 50lbs since starting journey (315 to 265) but this is awful!

@@Neutz,

It will not be your life after surgery. You have to remember your system is detoxing and getting rid of all the sugar/carbs. They are what give you energy.

I do remember exactly what you are referring to (brain fog), I swore I just could not function those last couple days. I wasn't hungry just feeling crappy.

You have 1 more day to go and then your surgery day will be here. Hang in there and keep your eye on the prize!

You will feel better soon! I hope all goes well with your surgery and you are on the road to recovery soon!

Good luck!
