Is anyone else struggling with mood swings during the pre op liquid diet



Recommended Posts

I'm very annoyed and aggravated with everything because I'm hungry. Since I started the liquid pre-op diet November 11th up until now my surgery is December 8th and I must say myself I have seen and felt changes and my moods because I'm angry about not being able to eat regular food. It's to the point where I don't even want to eat anything at all because I'm so sick of the Protein foods and shakes it's driving me mad #4weekliquiddiet

Why a whole month on the diet? I think anyone would be irritable. I am a bit. Day 11 for me. Surgery in 2 days.

I guess my surgeon wants to make sure my liver shrink so that he won't have any complications while doing my procedure...... it's truly been a difficult time for me I have been so unfair to my husband because of if and I feel bad/sad

I was. And a constant low grade headache. I had already weaned myself off of caffeine, so it wasn't related to that. I was far from perfect though. I would be on the wagon and then fall off, get back on and fall off until 4 days prior to 11-28-16. Then I cracked down. But yes, I was very cranky, emotional and in a fog.

@@Miss Impala I'm having the same issues (started last Wed 12/1 for VSG surgery 12/21) my NUT said it is withdraw from the gluten and sugar-that is why the fog. Said "after surgery you will be surprised that you felt so bad all the time but didn't realize because was your normal". I hope so!

      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. 🤞
