Follow the liquid diet plan your drs have given you. I'm so happy I did. I had my surgery yesterday with no complications. It only took an hr and half. I'm extremely sore but I'm doing great. I will be released today. My dr was so pleased with how far I've come and in my recovery. My throat is sore so I've had popcicles and ice cold Water. That helps so much. I had some discomfort with heart burn in my chest and grogginess from anesthesia. I'm still pretty high from the pain killers they have given me so I hope this helps and makes sense lol Good luck guys! I'm in the biggest loser club!!

Hi! I just had surgery on Monday, and I would agree that I'm sore and my throat is sore but other than that I feel OK. I have gotten nauseous a few times if I've tried to take my meds or Vitamins to quickly together.

Are you on liquid diet now again for 2 weeks post op? I am. I'm just trying to sip Water and drink Protein Shakes. We will see how it goes today :)

I am on for 2/11 and just started pre op diet today due to lower BMI. Going strong! I feel low energy and have a slight headache. I know I will be starving come 8:00 so I plan on just going to sleep.< /p>

I'm not gonna lie, its not easy, but you got this! Mine is 2 weeks all liquid, its a struggle but stepping on the scale each day makes it worth it.

I'm almost to my 1st week post op. SF Popsicles were my friend the first 3 days to help with the sore throat. Make sure to walk around too. My surgery was Feb 1st and I went back to work Feb 5th on half days. It hasn't been horrible. My stomach looks like I've been in fight club but I'm already down 12 lbs since surgery. So I'm excited about that.

      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.
