Nice. Are you on a pre-op diet? Have you lost weight? I didn’t think I’d lose weight here on day 3 b/c on day one I actually had two tacos that were left over. So I figured it would take longer.

Yes! Did start, I lost 2 pounds I started wednesday! And im so tempted to cheat!! But i know I can't I have to control food not let food control me

Yea, people have said it gets easier. It’s not super hard for me until my husband gets home and is eating. Luckily anything I like he keeps hidden it it isn’t in the house.

Well congratulations, I hope when I see my bariatric Surgeon Tuesday morning I get such good news. You see I started on my bariatric trek in August 2015 and so very 😫. I just want it to be over so very very much. I have never wavered in wanting it, even when people said I didn't deserve it for many,reasons. I have heard I'm too old, in too bad a shape, too depressed, not committed enough, because I'm a widow, I'd have to go to the next big city instead in my town, by continuing to desire it I would knock a deserving younger person out of place, because I'm silly and foolish, because,God created me obese I'd make him mad, I selfish thinking,only of myself not the impact on the family. All these from people I once regarded friends or family. But guess what? I'm still going through,with it, I want,to do it for my health and a chance for a future. And if that makes them sad they'd better get a happy transplant cause I've had too much doom and despair around me to last a lifetime! When I get,my official date I will cry first and then Celebrate. If that makes me emotionally unstable, so be it!😪😛

I am so super hungry right now. I had “Head hunger” during the day but I’m so hungry my stomach is growling and I can’t get to sleep. Tomorrow is day 3 of my liquid pre-op diet. July 25th is my surgery.

Had RNY on Tues. Pain is much better (yay!) and getting lots of fluids in (yay!) but today I feel SO fatigued, like I cannot stay awake. I’m sure it’s a part of the healing process, just curious if anyone else has felt intense fatigue?

[BeeCat 99]

Glad you're doing well, I've seen others talk about the fatigue following surgery. Not surprised, you just had your plumbing totally rearranged! Thats bound to take a lot out of a person. Rest, give your self time to recover. Great job!

Oh me too! I’m just over a week out and afternoon naps are my friend! I was never a napper pre op. I find my energy runs out fast! I think that is totally normal.

[LindyPablo 29]

Ok cool. Thanks guys :) Heal well!

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?
