GrrlAnn 177 Posted March 5, 2017 If this makes you feel better - I think the preop diet is so much worse than postop. I have so much more will power after surgery. It makes it so much easier! 3 quinn4205, Tufflaw and 10stackzz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It makes it so much easier! Agreed, near the end of the 2 week liquid diet I was so miserable but it's so much better after the surgery. Good luck! 1 10stackzz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
10stackzz 184 Posted March 5, 2017 Thanks for the heads up Ladies...I don't really know what to expect before or after surgery....The restricted dieting is such a mental thing....as long as I stay busy..I don't think of chewing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App My surgeon is a poopie head. It's funny because I just saw him for a 4 week followup from start of liquid diet and he even admitted I was ready for surgery. We went over my weight loss, my liver function results (normalized liver function tests after 2 yrs of high/dangerously high), my HBA1c drop (from 6.1 to 5.7 -- 1 yr ago was 7.9), etc. Guess they didn't believe I'd follow the premise of the diet and not lose weight. Oh well. Good news is it's post-semester (due to them moving my finals for me closer by a week) so.. not gonna interfere with a lot. Just hope I'm not as tired post-op as I was at the start of the liquid diet. I feel like running around.
