The pre-op diet is hard, but just remember it is not forever, and I can promise you that after the surgery you won't feel hunger in nearly the same way. It is much less intense.

I found it really took a week to figure out how to space out the shakes that was going to work for me. My pre-op is 4 shakes a day and basically nothing else. I go to bed early! Keep busy and just do my best. It's really hard, but only temporary. You can do it!

I'm on day 3 as well! My headache and nausea is a little better but so weak and dizzy at end of day. I would say Water and broth help when I am hungry. I am more nauseated than hungry though.

Seriously there are thousands of us who have done this. Get serious with the real problems, not the misery of liquids and boredom!

It's really hard hun try drinking some Powerade zero. I sip on mine all day long. The hunger pains are less intense. I really does help. I drink 2 bottles a day. It has helped me get through the last 8 days of this nightmare.

Wow @ you're rude. I thought this was a forum for people who are supportive, guess I was wrong? @@Bounce had asked what had worked...I was saying broth and Water have made it much better for me. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am the LEAST rude person you will meet here Missy. Wake up to reality and simple questions that have simple answers.

      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. 🤞
