Thanks girl!! Today was definitely my better day. Only problem I'm having is being obsessed with the scale lol I lost 11.3 pounds since the day of surgery and I can't wait to see the number going lower and lower. I haven't been under 250 in a long time

My schedule date is 9/19. I pray I can detox my liver. I haven't lost any weight. I'm in my PreOp liquid diet right now. I was very hungry yesterday and ended up eating some low fat popcorn. Ugh. Today I'm suffering from a headache. I'm having the DS sleeve. I had the lapband 11 years ago and it didn't work at all.

I had sleeve surgery yesterday. Slight nausea for a couple hours after surgery; otherwise a little soreness in my belly and that's it. Slight tightness in chest from gas but it went away fast. No problems walking. Just got home and I feel really good.

@@Gerri918 You have to be very careful not to have carbs during the pre-op diet. The purpose is to put you into ketosis so that you burn fat from your liver - it's not only about losing weight. Stay strong and stick with your diet - I've seen people have surgery cancelled (that day) because their liver was still too large.

My preop diet started yesterday, and let me tell you guys, I felt horrendous!!! Now im finally starting to get over the weakness and headaches and the head fog is starting to clear. Hopefully it's all smooth sailing from here!

Hi Everybody!

I'm scheduled for 9/19/16, and just started my liquid diet today.

My goal is to lose 88 - 93 lbs....and hopefully be able to stop using my CPAP and get off some of my meds (HBP & pre-diabetic)

I am so glad I found this site, it's been good hearing other peoples' stories and how the journey has been for them :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
