today was the first day of my pre-op diet. had my first one at around 7:24-8am, i tried the chocolate HMR 800 Protein Shake powder my nutritionist gave and used the recipie she gave me and it made me sick to my stomach! but an hour later i started to feel better and around 9am. 9:15 i walked a mile had 20oz of Water and between 10 and 11 i had a sugar free popsicle then around 11:30 i cleaned out my mom's car and it was sort of hot out but not sunny, and i sweat quiet a bit, it took like an hour to finish cleaning the car. around 12:30pm i had my 2nd Protein shake with the recipie my nutritionist gave me it was kind of like pumpkin pie, it was ok. had another popsicle around one something, cottage cheese around 3:40pm,3rd protein shake around 4, (drank diet snapple after and before) going to have a yogurt eventhough i already had cottage cheese, the only other option is fruit juices or vegetable juices and i dont have either. and then around 7ish ill have my last protein shake blaghh!

total cals: 890 total grams of protein: 83g

i already planned tomorrow out and the total cal is 900 and total protein is 86g going to walk 1.10miles(going to increase that by 10 everyday) and going to play the wii fit or DDR for an hour. might do some strength/resistance or some endurance/aerobic exercises too...wow im actually excited lol

My surgeon didn't make a big deal out of the calories. I have to have a lite Protein shake twice daily and one meal that consists of lean meat and veggies (as many veggies as I want). I also get one piece of fruit. Not bad really.

How long do you have to go? You'll get through it!

my nutritionist gave me a list of what I can have but sounds better than mine I need to have 4 Protein Shakes and I need to do it for 8 more days. They want me to stay under 1,000 cals and 80 and over in Protein, I hope so cause my stomach won't shut up! Lol

        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!

      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
