Ok, My doctor has no pre OP only requirements is stay same weight or lose if possible.

So after Tuesday night I am going to try and stick to liquids the best I can. I know I heard everyone talking about how much Better it is for the liver and surgery.

I'm still freaking out and that makes me want a eat. I guess this will change after surgery... anyone else go through it too?

Four days, 4 argghhh... I was ready months ago Now I'm doing the what if's...

I'm so glad everyone is here for support.

I bought pho broth for pre op for my liquid as well as chicken and sugar free apple drink, Jello and Protein drinks...I really hope I can stick to it. I would feel better knowing I did it for a better surgery.

Well it's good you're doing your best to prepare yourself for this major life change. Just as I was informed by my surgeon, your tastebuds may do a complete 180° on you, and all those postops nourishments you stocked up on, may end up tasting like something you've never had before. So just don't overdo them, until after your surgery, you can try them out one at a time, and see which of them you can tolerate. Best of luck to you though [emoji7]

The items I got are for pre op. I wanted to try and stay on a clean liquid as much as I can Wednesday and Thursday even though I have no pre op diet...
Oh, ok gotcha! Was just worried about afterwards, cos my tastebuds and me are almost frenemies now, since they're rejecting the same Protein Shake I've been having preop and now they taste like s*** postop. Lol

Hope it gets better. My likes are really high for foods so it may be good if I don't like a lot of foods. But for health hope it's not the foods that are better for us post op...

My Dr said low carb diet for pre-op and for the most part I'm sticking with it. I'm doing Protein Shakes once per day, veggies/salad another and then really watching what I do for my 3rd meal and Snacks. We have our Christmas gathering tomorrow with my kids and grandkids and I know I'm gonna eat. I'll have a shake in the morning and that's it till we eat. I told my daughters they had to cook the sweets. Not even doing the normal Christmas candy making this year. Lol. I'm having surgery Friday too. Soooo excited!!!

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

        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.

      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
