  1. This is only day two of my pre-op diet and I'm so hungry and irritated. To add insult to injury I live with family members all of which love to eat and EAT GOOD! And I'm stuck drinking liquids for the next 8 days. My sister literally just made steak, eggs, rice with gravy and spinach. All those delicious smells served to drive me crazy. Ugh! but I kept it together. Instead of indulging I fixed a delicious tomato based Soup with yummy veggies strained it and drank the broth. Although it was good, I'm still craving her meal. This is so very hard. My family is supportive as much as they can be but, they're not on a diet so they don't have to curtail what they eat, i do. But, seeing all that great food MAKES ME WANT IT EVEN MORE! Any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated....
  2. Day three post op, I had a very rough night last night but, after I took my meds I felt better. The gas and bloating pain is driving me insane but, it is what it is I guess, the doc recommended gas x which I don't believe is working. And lortab liquid for pain. I'm really trying to increase my fluid intake while recognizing the various sensations my body experiences, such as gas, bloat, soreness, nausea, fullness its all so confusing and then to manage/pay attention to what and how much liquid intake I'm receiving per day plus exercise is more than a notion!. I look at other people's post and it looks like they have it together. That's not the case for me.

    Pre-Op Diet And I'm So Hungry!

    Thanks for all the comments and support, you guys are awesome. Not only did I complete the pre op diet but, I also list 7lbs, in the process. I am in day three post op and it is a challenge understanding the different sensations my body is experiencing but, at least I am gaining an understanding of this whole process. Good luck to everybody!

    Pre-Op Diet And I'm So Hungry!

    Thanks for the encouragement. But, I've failed. Each day since my post I have started each day on the right track but by the end of the day I fail. Idk, I need help, I have little to no discipline and I'm considering cancelling the surgery altogether.

    August Roll Call

    Hello, I just joined the site, still figuring out how this site works. Best wishes for your surgery. My surgery is scheduled August 6, and I'm struggling with the pre- op diet. I'm soooo hungry and frustrated. Did you have those feelings?
