My preop diet allows for 1 meal a day 4oz of chicken breast, tuna or a meat a veggie. I started mine early eliminating carbs, then sugars. Hanging in there my date is 7/30. Good luck on your journey and keep in touch. I take this one day and one hour at a time. 1 MsCallieigh reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I found that the pre-op diet was the hardest. Mentally and physically I knew I could eat what I wanted and be fine so it really put my will-Power to the test. After procedure, not the slightest bit hungry nothing seems to bother me as much. 1 Sandra Nuelken reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had a neighborhood swim party with the ladies, took my ice tea and stayed in the pool so I wouldn't be tempted. Some days not terrible some days one hour at a time. I weigh in each morning hoping it will give me some strength. Husband is gone this week so it has been easier, next week he will be back with all the temptations. So happy to hear that after surgery things will get easier. So happy to hear the recovery is going well for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ccs124 6 Posted July 29, 2019 Had mine July 3. Just got clearance to start exercise besides walking. Just a little sore when moving in certain positions. Only real problem I had was 1st week I had a terrible headache but I adjusted. Clear liquid was fine but I can live without Jello now. Excited to start 4th week foods. Lost 19 lbs but I expect it to slow down now that I get to eat some chicken and tuna. I can’t wait to see results in 6 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm still not eating solid foods and I think I'm a little scared to try after trying scrambled eggs last week and they didn't stay down. Have you tried those yet? Also, when you do your chicken and tuna, will you be blending it up? I'm almost over eating Soup but again, scared to try the next foods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
