Pre op liquid diet day 12

[VeeAurora 54]

So I’m on day 12 of my pre op diet, 38 to go 😭 I’ve lost 13lbs and I’m hanging in there, but damn it’s not getting easier. Thought the hunger would pass after a few days but nah.. and I think about food every second of every day. I’ll follow my surgeons instructions no matter how hard it is, but please tell me the constant thoughts of food will fade slightly after surgery?

I’m excited to not feel the hunger as much but I’m definitely worried my addiction to food will bother me forever

Hang in there, it will get better. I felt the same but after surgery you get so full and now I have found healthy foods that I enjoy soooo much .. there are days where I’ll see certain foods and I’ll want it but then I’ll remember everything I’ve been through and also how unhealthy and miserable that food made me feel and I’ll simply stop wanting it .. but don’t worry you’re strong enough to over come any of the challenges, you got this!!

Thank you💕 that gives me hope!
It’s 50 days. So a lot longer than most people on here I see, but I’m having it done in Norway and the whole process is a bit different

Yeah that’s super long, I only had to do a liquid diet the day before surgery and a low fat diet 2 weeks before surgery.. but ever surgeon is different and also everyone’s health ..

But hang in there, I know it must be super hard but you can and will overcome it.. later on after surgery when you start feeling healthy and good you’ll be so happy that you did everything you had to do.. this will show you some of the strengths you never even knew you had 💕
