In between the appointment with the surgeon and today, I've really blown off my previously successful dietary changes as a last hurrah. Tomorrow begins my preop diet so anything I've gained will come right off before my surgery date. I'm sure you'll be great! Best of luck! Sent from my SM-G975U using BariatricPal mobile app Yes-surgery twin! I am almost 2 weeks into my 4 week pre-op and I made it this far . The first week was rough as I just felt yucky and a dull roar of a headache for about 7 days. Assume it was a combo of carb withdrawal, caffeine, and sodium reduction. It did go away and I feel a ton better now besides still battling hunger ( I am sure it is all in my head though). I go to my 2 week to start full liquids on Tuesday this week (eek!). Feel like I am almost in the home stretch and have lost about 8 lbs so far on the pre-op. Let’s stay in touch on our journey! Are you getting RNY or VSG? 1 Lizzziee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joyfuljourney 10 Posted September 16, 2019 21 days until surgery, October 7th, 2019 is the magic day for me! After a few rounds with insurance the approval finally came through. Nervous and excited. It's nice to be able to go through this with others on here. 2 shanshan and MwtRBP reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ng4345 1 Posted September 18, 2019 Hi! My surgery date is October 8th! I am so very excited and nervous at the same time. How can that be possible? I am excited for this new chapter in my life. I am nervous because I have a very low tolerance for pain! Lol 1 Panda333 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ypease 177 Posted September 18, 2019 Ng4345 - I just have a high tolerance for pain. I think either you do or you don't tolerate pain well. I absolutely cannot stand pain meds! Nor do I tolerate them well. You will be fine. Don't worry. No pain no gain...right? I hate that saying! So lame! 1 Panda333 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
