September Surgery...Lets do this

[nevertoolate13 28]

On post op day two. Came home from the hospital last night. Today woke up a little more sore but I also haven't taken any of my pain pills. Walking helps with pain.

The weirdest part is being hungry but not really. I guess this is the head hunger everyone talks about. I couldn't imagine eating right now but when my fiancé eats around me I'm definitely eyeing it haha

@@Angmw82 I know what you mean. Try and explore different ones now because it's even harder to get them in after. I'm really struggling with them now. I loved the Premier Protein before surgery. Now they taste WAY too sweet so I'm switching back to the powders

I'm on day one of my ten day pre op diet, and this is waaaaaay harder than I expected. I'm following the rules so my Protein has me full but my mind is on a constant loop of all foods that I love to eat. At this point it's definitely quite a task to keep my mind on the right track. Any advice??

Hiya.

I'm on day 9 of the pre op diet lost 14lbs and it is NOT easy I have surgery on Wednesday so it's preparing me for my entire life to cut back and it's about self control keep busy but in a few days you won't care about food. Hang in there for me weekends are worst but you can do it. Good luck

Keeping myself busy helps a lot! I keep reminding my self that my mental obsession with food is what got me to 306.4 pounds. So I have to break away from old habits.

Awww thank you so much. Very nervous but very prepared and excited. I'm day 11 on the pre op diet and I'm okay little dehydrated. Keep your 2 litres of Water going that also helps... good luck also x

Hi Melanie 89. I wish you well for Wednesday. You have done really well on your pre diet, I bet your really pleased with yourself. I have my surgery on Friday at Kings College in London under Mr Ramar. I know you are from the UK Where are you having your surgery?

[jody 69 10]

Day 11 on pre diet. Feeling very light headed and weak. But continuing with the diet, I have lost 14llb in 11 days so I'm happy with that. I had a mental break down last week asking myself why am I doing this, got through that and have been happy, today I am back tired and asking what am I doing? are anyone else thinking this aswell?

Hi Jody.

Aww thank you so much yes I am on day 12 of my pre op diet and I write this whilst drinking my 2nd one for the day ha! Yeh I am so proud of myself because I thought I would of cheated but I haven't. Yes I am having mine with Dr Sufi at the Whittington in archway London. Ahh you are friday how amazing are you scared? How do you find your pre op diet shakes? I have the asda Meal Replacement vanilla and chocolate I prefer vanilla though one they taste like ice cream because I put ice in it just 2 cubes and blitz it in my nutribullet. Ahhh nearly there how much have you lost?
