ewilliams4491 76 Posted December 4, 2017 My surgery date is on the 14th. I started the pre-op diet on Sunday. 1st day was easy today wasn’t so bad besides the headache at the end of the day. Good luck 3 FluffyChix, rochagurl757 and Daydreamer72 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Nor does someone on a 14 day diet, as I was, have 14 horrid days.) There is a period of, typically, 18 to 55 hours of numb headache pain as one's body adjusts. Before and after those hours of pain is quite all right for the overwhelming majority of pre-WLS patients. I would counsel you to think that, despite the distasteful few hours, the long term outlook for a new slimmer future is worth almost any pain. 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
