4/17/18 is my day! Anyone else having surgery in April? How’s your Pre-op diet going?



Recommended Posts

Today is day 13 of my pre op diet, Tuesday is surgery day! The pre op has been rough I'm not a fan of the protien shakes so i split them into 4 oz randomly through the day. I've lost 12 lbs so far. Good luck!! You've got this!

Yes I completely feel the same way. I have to daughters and I have to cook for them of course all the time right. That’s kind of messing with me a little. But my oldest keeps reminding me I can’t have no food.

Today is much better that yesterday. I couldn’t keep anything down. But I’m taking gas-x chewable, nausea med, pain med, protonix, and a stool softener. Once I was able to pass gas this morning I began to feel much better. I can’t drink much but I’m won’t force it. It’s still 1 oz or 2 every hour or so for me. Just happy it’s staying down today.

After surgery you won't be hungry much. As soon as you eat something, you'll be full. I broke down one day, and have a pack of Lance crackers, that was it, had to skip my meal.

      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.
