Omygoodness, Dec 10th get here, for some reason today I am really struggling with my 14 day preo-op diet. I have been strictly sticking to eating chicken breast, fish, zero fat cottage cheese, peaches, green Beans, brussel sprouts, sugar free Jello, banana small, strawberries, egg whites and my Unjury Protein Shakes. Today I broke down and had my husband fix me an egg beaters omelette with onion, bell peppers and a couple pinches of shredded cheese, I am craving a hershey's chocolate bar like crazy! I just keep thinking of all of the things I will not be able to have and it is driving me crazy the closer my time is nearing! I just want my surgery to go well and not worry about my liver being in the way! URGGGGGGHHHHHHHH The kids had a Digiornois pizza and I wanted some sooooooo badly, just one piece and I got ran out of the kitchen. Just like the other day, they had cheesy sausage I did not touch them. I am losing all self control because I know I cannot have it!

Hi, I am new to this site. I am 34 and starting weight was 281. I am scheduled for the sleeve on Dec 9th. My meal plan was 1 week 3 shakes/smoothies and a small meal and 1 week five shakes no meals.. The first few days were bad but not so bad anymore. Two days before surgery start all liquid diet! I have lost 6lbs during two week pre op diet so far. This site is so up-lifting. Thank you to all the previous post and good luck on your Journey. I look forward to reading everyone's stories.

I’m scheduled for Dec 11 so very excited, one week away and it can’t get here fast enough. Liver reduction is doing well, and I’ve begun making recipes and freezing for future meals for after surgery. I’ve even started going thru my clothes and weeded out my fat clothes I’ve already grown out of. I did save my biggest pair of fat jeans and top so I can show where I came from when this is all over with. I’m so looking forward to a healthier active life. Best wishes everyone

That's a good idea to hold onto the biggest pants and top to compare down the road!

Welcome @Ash84623!!! This site has helped me a lot. I have chosen to not tell many people about what I'm doing. My husband and mother are the only ones that know. It's good to be able to come to this site and see how I'm feeling in someone else's post. I don't feel so weird with the thoughts I have lol. I'm wrapping up day 4 of my 2 week diet. I'm done about 3-4 lbs so far. Today was a much easier day considering my husband and kids had pizza for dinner. I had a small portion of steak and raw cauliflower. I did steal some mushrooms off of my husband's pizza. Currently drinking peppermint tea to curve this head hunger.

I’m freaking out a little. Surgery 12/9 and my husband has the flu. I got the flu shot, but that’s no guarantee. I’ve been wearing a mask when I bring him Soup and medicine, but I’m so stressed, I really want a cheeseburger! I hate that he feels bad, but I do not want to have to get delayed, or start over n the liquid diet. Gotta get him well, and keep myself well!

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
