I'm not sure what to do at three months out. If I am exempt at this point or not. I will try and see how I manage.




I think 3 months is too early better check with your nut or surgeon before you plan to fast

I think you shouldn't you are exempt but you will have to keep it later and make up for it
1 month is too early because one month you can barely eat anything or drink enough

there were times in my life that I couldnt fast. Sacrifice something else. keep your health goals and heal. Also, volunteer to serve food at a community iftar and feed the homeless. God understands because Ramadan is about sacrifice..food is only o ne part. I hope that helps. And during the Eid feed as many in the community as you can. Give gifts to poor families with children. Fasting is more about sacrifice and there are many ways to sacrifice. Health first.

I completed the first day fast. It has been a terrible mistake. I was only able to have on Protein Shake, a few crackers and Water. I got terrible chills and diarrhea. My system is so screwed up today I've been in bed. Not able to fast.




Ohh that's so sad to know i hope you get better just drink enough water and don't fast if you cant .
Well on the other hand mine was good Alhumdulliah first day was hard i felt weak and slept a lot after breaking my fast but i managed to drink a lot of water

      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.
