I was told to beware of the carbs. Muscle milk has a lot of carbs and I was told to stay under 5.

You will be fine!!! I am officially 10 pounds down and started my pre-op liquid diet on the 8th of Feb. I will be 110% honest and say that the first three days were absolutely horrible and I was questioning if this was really going to be worth it. By day 5 I was completely fine and now I am even better and on day 8 and all I can think about is the fact that I only have 13 days left before my surgery date!!
What has helped me a ton, is staying busy and drinking Water (when it wasn't time for my Protein shakes, sugar free Jello, broth or sugar free popsicles) until my stomach hurt. I am talking sipping from the minute I wake up, to the minute I went to bed. Between sipping like crazy and bathroom visits eating has become a distant thought.
It isn't easy and takes A LOT of self control, but it is not impossible, and very much doable. Just keep your eye on the prize and keep moving forward. You got this!!

One more week girl! Very proud!! I "officially start my liquid diet on feb 28. Good luck to you. Btw im having gbp. You?

I can't wait to say that this is my biggest hurdle! Having mind control and not letting my stressful job get me down! I'm going to a support group tomorrow. I have a best friend who is also a rny success story. I need all the support I can get because this is so very hard! I will not be defeated! I'm needing support and prayers! I'm determined!

      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.
