Yea, I’m on day 4 of my liquid diet. I’m a teacher on summer break. I just keep falling asleep. How does everyone get the energy to get up and walk?

I have one week of Protein Shakes and one day of liquid diet before surgery I think the Protein is helping me but I am freezing!!

Me too! I actually lost a pound while I was napping lmao. I checked the scale three times. This liquid diet is great. But I’m so tired and so cold lol

Im definitely going through the "keto flu", but im starting to feel better. Last night I felt like dying, neck pain, headache was the worst day ever. But today! Im starting to feel better, and im really really thankful for that. I need to get a scale and start keeping track too. Im at my surgeons office weighing in so much I figured I could wait to buy one LOL!

I think my scale is broken. I weight ten pounds more at home than in the office. I’m using it to help me see my weight go down but I think I need a new one.

2 days to go, the thing I'm most looking forward to is the end of Optifast shakes

I'm a weird little puppy, I am actually looking forward to the liquid pre-diet. Yes I know it is like a living purgatory but at the end I will get my surgery, that is my GOAL, I'll crawl across the broken glass causeway if it gets me to my RnY and a chance for a successful future life!👉😛👈

Day 5 Post Op ---

How are all you Post Op's doing?

I had hoped to be doing better than I am. I've had Migraines and low grade fevers and just pain. Not that I've been miserable this whole time, but I'm looking forward to feeling better! Today has probably been the best day so far. But I am struggling to get all my fluids in. I have some discomfort when drinking Water. Anyone else?

I am on day 6 post op.. I have developed a rash on my stomach. Benadryl has been my friend. Getting enough fluids is a struggle because I’m not thirsty but forcing myself to sip often. My struggle has been I feel good and I want to try to eat the next foods on my list but haven’t due to being nervous and messing something up. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!

A lot of you seem to be having surgery on the 26th. I've only found one person having it on the 24th (like me). Anyone else?

Best of luck to everyone!! Heading for the Loser's Bench :)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
